[R] tickmarks with time in dotplots

[Phil Spector]

Mikkel -
    Suppose you want tick marks at every half hour:

ticks = seq(as.POSIXct('2010-02-22 12:00:00 PST'),
             as.POSIXct('2010-02-22 17:00:00 PST'),by='30 min')
dotplot(Name ~ Time, data = C, horizontal = TRUE,scales=list(x=list(at=ticks)))

Hope this helps.
