read ?par
1.use ylab="" to suppress y labels, then mxtext to manually draw em yourself
OR use mgp=... within par()
2.use xlab not xlim to change the x axis labels

Subject: RE: [R] Simple plotting errors
Thanks for all the useful information; use of 'c(...)' did the trick,
although in future I'll try to hold the data in a more user-friendly
setup.
I've now got a plot, but have two issues that I can't seem to resolve:
1, The ylab is overlapping the y-axis tick mark values. I've tried using
oma and mar to adjust the outer and plot margins respectively, but this
doesn't seem to 'detach' the overlapping text.
2. The x-axis currently has tick mark values of 2 to 12. How do change
this to single-letter month labels? So far I've tried
xlim=c("J","F","M",A","M"...) and names.arg=c("J","F","M"...), but these
result in errors.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks again,
Steve
