Hmmm. What do you mean by "not very nice"? This graph
seems (to me) to be a typical logarithmic scaling axis.
If you really wanted equal scaling you could do
matplot(...,axes=FALSE)
axis(side=1)
pvec <- 10^seq(-3,-1,by=0.5)
axis(side=2,at=pvec,labels=round(pvec,3))
box()
or something like that...
warning, totally untested ...
(the only way I can think of to get "pretty"
and equally spaced ticks is to use ONLY powers
of ten ...)
