RE: [R] How do I insert a newline in my title in a plot?
Dear Christos, This works for me, and has many times in the past. Is it possible that you used a forward-slash (/), rather than a back-slash (\)? Alternatively, perhaps this has something to do with using Greek fonts.

FW: [R] How do I insert a newline in my title in a plot?
Thank you very much! I should have known... well, to inform you, this is the case: The problem was of a friend of mine, told to me me by phone. From the begining I was telling my friend BYPHONE to do this: title(This is a title\nIn 2 lines) but my friend understood and did all the time this: title(This is a title/nIn 2 lines). but it is my problem too: the problem is that I say slash and I mean backslash, or vice cersa (!) So the phone-confusion occured, and I was reporting a problem which does not exist! thank you all for your help. Thanks from my friend too, and sorry for the confusion I created. -Original Message- From: John Fox [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: , 16 2004 16:25 To: 'Christos Rodopoulos' Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [R] How do I insert a newline in my title in a plot?

Have you not tried what you have already suggested:
title(this is a title\nIn 2 lines)
?
I've tried it out and you should use single quotes, then it'll work.
At least inside R single and double quotes are equivalent.
So it's an interpretation matter. Unfortunately I cannot figure out the
help page dealing with this :-/
That's because it's in R-lang:
String constants are delimited by a pair of single (@samp{'}) or double
(@samp{}) quotes and can contain all other printable characters.
Quotes and other special characters within strings are specified using
@emph{escape sequences}:
A single quote may also be embedded directly in a double-quote delimited
string and vice versa.
It is possible that a front-end processor is interfering here, and so what
is typed is not reaching R unchanged.
