Labeling

void label ([const string pos = "top", [const bool dot = false, [Picture& picture = current_picture]]]) const function
Labels the Points on points, using lowercase letters. pos is used to position all of the labels. It is currently not possible to have different positions for the labels. 
          Ellipse e(origin, 6, 4);
          e.draw();
          e.label();
