I don't know if this helps, but recently I tried to use rmeta to make
a forest plot and gave up because the data I had were not in the right
format, so I simulated a forest plot using gplots.  I did it all
sideways and then rotated the PostScript.  See 

http://www.sas.upenn.edu/~baron/journal/jdm71128.pdf
Figure 4 on p. 300 for the result, and 
http://www.sas.upenn.edu/~baron/journal/71128/figs.R
for the code (Figure 4).  The last line in the comment shows how to
rotate the PostScript.
