Summary - Re: [R] R-Graphics

Thanks to all who replied. Mostly the suggestion was to add the argument
horizontal= FALSE to the postscript function. However, I was trying to
generate a landscape graph. The "fault" lies with gs as Peter Dalgaard
pointed out. Under Windows 95, gsview has an option to view landscape or
portrait and therefore this problem does not arise on that platform.

I am having a strange problem with R graphics:
I am testing out R on a Sun Solaris machine. I generate a simple postscript
graph as:

postscript(file="temp.ps", paper= "letter")
plot(c(1:10), xlab= "index", ylab= "Cell Count")
title("Generic Test of R-Graphics")
dev.off()

When I view the temp.ps file with gs (version 5.50) I get the graph rotated
by at least 90 deg. Is this a bug or have I missed something?
TIA.
