command line / programming for user specified bin sizes?

quick/easy q, it's simple but can't find help in the manual... i'm creating a bunch of histograms and i'd like them to all have same bins (for sake of comparison etc). to change bin size you usually go something like:

freeze(graphname) seriesname.hist(binw=arg)

where arg = eviews, sigma etc. question is, what do you put in for user specified bin size? i know how to click through the menus to user spec'd bins but i'd like to be able to plug an actual command into a "for" loop to do all the histo's at once

Cheers!

Currently there doesn't appear to be one. We'll see about adding something in a patch (for EV8, at least).

It's coming soon to EV8. Possibly to 7, but no guarantees. Stay tuned.
