Setting the histogram binwidth to user-specified on program

Hi,

I want to set the bin width of a histogram in my program to a user specified value. However the help file makes no mention of it:
binw=arg
arg specifies the bin width, and may be “eviews” (default), “sigma” (normal reference rule with as the measure of dispersion), “iqr” (normal reference rule based on the interquartile range), “silverman” (normal reference rule with Silverman’s robust measure of dispersion), “freedman” (Freedman-Diaconis).
Is it possible to reach this option using a program, without the mouse?

Sorry. I"ll have to fix the docs.

(binw=user, binval=val)
