+You can provide a list of markers as the value of the 'marker' entry in the dictionary. In this
+case, the show_marker routine will go through the list of markers using one per point. If there
+are more points than markers, it will cycle through the list of markers repeatedly. Similarly,
+you can provide a list of colors for 'color', 'fill_color', or 'stroke_color', and a list of
+numbers for 'font', 'angle', 'scale', 'horizontal_scale', 'vertical_scale', 'italic_angle', 'ascent_angle',
+or 'stroke_width'.
