I'm sorry; I haven't been able to figure out what you want the plot to look like, and I suspect others on the list may be having the same problem. When you describe the bars as "big" or "little", are you referring to width? Height? spacing? When I run your script, I don't see anything that I would describe as "squared aspect". What physical dimensions would you like the axes to have, and what physical dimensions would you like the bars to have? Maybe you can make a sketch using characters to show what you want the plot to look like, e.g., ___________________ | | | ____ | | | | ____ | | | | | | | ------------------- Also, is there a reason you are using two calls to "bar" instead of one? Note that arguments such as color can be sequences.
