Dani,
You can put text on your graphs using the locator function. Here is an example

hist(rnorm(1000,0,1) #plots a histogram for you
xy.cord<-locator(1) #Once you give this click on the graph to get the coordinates
text(xy.cord, "Text you want to write")

Hope this helps.
Cheers../Murli

In recent versions of R there are the functions grconvertX and grconvertY that will convert between the different coordiate systems.  You can use them to convert from the device or ndc systems to user coordinates, then place the text using the text function.

Hope this helps,
