That is, although helpful, a little obscure!

Helpfully, to answer my own question:

addLines(h=160, on=1)

does the trick.

But how do I get a dotted line?

 > addLines(h=100, lty=2)
Error in addLines(h = 100, lty = 2) : unused argument(s) (lty = 2)

The "col" argument works to set a colour.

Is there any documentation available?  Banging around google and mailing 
list archives is a very time consuming and frustrating process.

?addLines is not helpful.
