[R] Appearance of Forest Plot

[Joshua Wiley]

Hi,

Can you give a reproducible example of what you did?  My intuition is
that you could do it using par(), but I am not sure what package
metabin() is from (certainly none of the ones that load by default),
and I have even less idea how you created a forest plot (there are
many ways in R).  If you make up a little dataset (or use one of the
built in ones) and then show your code using that example, we can
replicate what you did and provide help.

I would also say that for faceting or otherwise breaking up your data
but having on graph, I find either the lattice or ggplot2 packages
easier to work with than base graphics.

Cheers,

Josh
