quotation marks in axis labels

I'm trying to figure out how to get a quotation mark (i.e. the arcsecond symbol) into an axis label (using the IGI X|YLABEL command). Help would be very much appreciated.

Sorry for overlooking this. On the chance you didn't find a solution, the trick in your case is to quote the label string with single quotes, then the double-quote for the arcsec will be taken literally. For example,

xlabel '\\iSeparation (")'

I'm not sure there's a way to use both single and double quotes in the same label, however.
