multidist is similar to dist except that it can produce multiple, overlaid frequency distributions, each from a separate data field (column).`` Except as noted below, all of the dist parameters may be used, and multidist was contributed as a backwards-compatible replacement for dist.`` Contributed by Marshall Rose; please forward any questions to him at `mrose@dbc.mtview.ca.us`

## Parameters

  overlay may be given as `yes`, which causes multiple distributions to be done. Each field (column) of the data will be tabulated individually and a distribution computed and plotted. The first row of the data gives the name for each category, and is used in the legend. A legend is always rendered. fld should not be supplied. xrange and yrange must be supplied.`` If overlay is not `yes`, multidist operates identically to dist prefab
  rotate may be given as `yes` to rotate the data matrix (as seen in the above example).``
  All of the parameters (including standard parameters) supported by the dist prefab are also supported. In addition, the standard parameters related to legends are supported.``
