[R] plot region ??

[Jan Malte Wiener]

hi,
i am using the barplot function, but i have problems with the plot 
region when adjusting the bar width manually. if you only want to plot 2 
bars the default barwidth is to wide (aesthetically speaking). by 
adjusting width and xlim one can actually produce narrow bars, but then 
the plotted graph is not in the center of the plot region, which means 
that for example the title of the plot isn't centered above the barplot.

e.g.
toPlot<-c(5,6)
barplot(toPlot, width=c(0.4), xlim=c(0,3))
title(main = "Female - Male", font.main=2)

any ideas how to get rid of this problem ??
