Hi Nicola,

Have a look at the Standard Package "Graphics`Legend`".

BTW: If you are searching the Help Browser for a Mathematica feature not listed
already as a "Built-In Function", click on "Master Index".

Hey WRI people: a FullTextSearch function for the Mathematica Help would be
appreciated!

Regards,
Harald
