Well, maybe not worthless, but the X11 setup on Mac is poor in general. type="Xlib" appears plainly not to work, and even disregarding the pi issue, the rotated y-axis labels come out pretty ugly. This is why quartz is now the default on OSX. BTW, it seems that the standard X11 "Symbol","Regular" font is simply absent on OSX. I can't get fc-match to list it, anyway. -- Peter Dalgaard Center for Statistics, Copenhagen Business School Solbjerg Plads 3, 2000 Frederiksberg, Denmark Phone: (+45)38153501 Email: pd....@cbs.dk Priv: pda...@gmail.com ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
