[R] plot

[Joerg Maeder]

Hello Martin,

in this case i plot the axis manually. That means in that plot itself i
set xaxis='n' and plot the labels with text.

small example
d <-   as.data.frame(matrix(runif(60),5))
names(d) <- month.name
boxplot(d,xaxt='n')
ypos <- par()$usr[3]-(par()$usr[4]-par()$usr[3])/50 #a little bit below
the line
text(1:ncol(d),ypos,names(d),srt=270,adj=0,xpd=T) #xpd allows printing
outside the borders,srt rotate the text
