[R] axis scaling problem
On the attached figure, I had to use ylim (0,3) to have enough space for the labels to be plotted. However, the values on the y-axis are never bigger than 1, so the axis labeling does not make much sense. Can I only get y-axis tick marks at 0 and 1 but still have the additional plotting space for the labels?

Re: [R] how to set environment variables?
Renviron is in an odd places on Macs:
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.1.1/Resources/etc/Renviron
As suggested in ?Startup, I added the R_GSCMD variable to
Renviron.site instead.
Thanks for your help

Re: [R] how to set environment variables?
Thanks. Sys.putenv did work, however this has to be set every time I start R.
gs is on my path and works fine under Unix, but I get the following
error when running bitmap (without setting R_GSCMD first):
/bin/sh: line 1: gs: command not found
I assume the problem is related to the fact that I am using the csh
shell, while the new Mac OS X default shell is now bash. So I guess
my .csh path settings are ignored by R calling bash. I solved the
problem by adding my R_GSCMD settings to the Renviron file
(R_GSCMD=${RGSCMD-'/sw/bin/gs'} in my case). Hope this helps anyone
with the same problem.
Thanks again for your help!
Andreas

[R] how to set environment variables?
The help file of the R bitmap function says that I have to set the environment variable R_GSCMD to the path of my Ghostscript installation. How do I set this variable (either by commandline or in R.app for Mac)? Sorry if this sounds like a very basic question, but I could not find the answer anywhere else.
