Subject: hist() with horiz=TRUE does not give horiz. plots (PR#372)
Message-ID: <199912131833.KAA12807@dvorak.Berkeley.EDU>

Paul,

Thank you for your quick reply.  The reason I thought horiz= would work with
hist() is that it does in Splus.  (I was converting an S script to R.)  In
Splus, help(hist) syntax denotes by ... "additional arguments to barplot".
However, I just noticed that in R, help(hist) denotes by ...  "further
graphical parameters to 'title' and 'axis'".

Please consider adding this functionality to hist().  In the mean time, I'll
try out your barplot() example as a possible replacement for my hist() command.
Thank you for providing it.

P.S. Please say hello to Ross for me if you see him.  He was a housemate of
mine in graduate school.
