I don't know if this bug has been fixed in a patch I missed, but ...
line 154 of devPS.c, which currently reads
maxpointsize = 72.0 * ((pageheight>pagewidth)) ? pageheight : pagewidth;
should read
maxpointsize = 72.0 * ((pageheight>pagewidth) ? pageheight : pagewidth);
The misplaced parenthesis makes maxpointsize wrong.
Other comments (things I may get around to fixing when I'm less busy):
- on quick examination "mkh" appears to have no effect;
- the components of mgp(x,y,z) appear to get rounded off to integers at
some point, which I don't like (but should at least appear in
documentation if there's a good reason for it); I like to be able to
fine-tune distances ...
- when using arrows() on a log-scaled plot, you have to use log(x)
coordinates rather than x-coordinates. This could be intentional (but is
not the way text() works, so I would say it should be made to work the way
text() works).
