# Add a title
# -----------
#
# The ``frame`` parameter can be used to add a title to the figure. The title
# is set with by passing ``"+t"`` followed by the title (e.g. setting the map
# title to "Title" would be ``"+tTitle"``).
#
# To pass multiple arguments to ``frame``, a list can be used, as shown in the
# example below. This format uses ``frame`` to set both the axes gridlines and
# the figure title.
#
# If the figure title has any spaces, the string to set the title needs to
# be wrapped in single-quotes, while the actual title is set in double quotes
# (e.g. setting the title to "A Title" would use the syntax ``'+t"A Title"'``.
