I got an offlist question asking if I knew why my code produced 4  
lines in the title. I do and I was expressing annoyance at my  
inability to figure out how to make rep() stop forcing it to be so.  
It's because paste returns a vector of lines when given a 2 element  
vector argument by rep("sub", i-1) when i==2.

  Less perplexing code, and hopefully more pleasant to look at graph,  
might be:

opar <- par(oma = 4 * c(1, 1, 1, 1), no.readonly = TRUE); par(mfrow =  
1:2)
plot(1:3, 9:7)
plot(1:3, 7:9)
for(i in 1:3) title(main = paste(c("", "sub-", "sub-sub-")[i],  #skip  
rep()
                                        "Title", sep=""),
                     line = 1-i, outer = TRUE, cex.main=2.5/i )
par(opar)
