I just had a look at this page and expanded the examples a bit:
##Sample data:
mydat <- data.frame(x=1:10, y=1:10, dy=rnorm(10))
attach(mydat)
##Style of errorbars:
myangle=90 #Angle from shaft to edge of arrow head.
mylength=0.2#Length of arrow head in inches (!!!)
##One--sided errorbars:
plot(x,y,ylim=range(y,y+dy))
arrows(x,y,x,y+dy,angle=myangle,length=mylength)
##Two--sided errorbars:
plot(x,y,ylim=range(y-dy,y+dy))
arrows(x,y-dy,x,y+dy,code = 3,angle=myangle,length=mylength)
