Hi,

If you plot a cumulative histogram of a gausian distribution, using a
log scale on the x-axis and a probit scale on the y-axis, you get a
straight line.

My question is whether it is possible in R to use a "probit" scale in
a "plot". For example on the following webpage you can see an
application of how I would like to use a probit scale:

And if a probit scale is not available, what would be the most
effecient way of 'simulating' a probit scale using the plot comment.

Many thanks for your help!!!
