I am using
[1] "Unstable-snapshot"

$status.rev
[1] "0"

$major
[1] "0"

$minor
[1] "62.0"

$year
[1] "1998"

$month
[1] "April"

$day
[1] "12"

If I do:
plot(x,y, type="l")
par(lwd=4)
lines(tt,pts)

The 2nd curve does appear to be heavy (correct line width) in X11 window,
however saved plot (dev.print) uses just single pixel line width (as seen
when viewed in ghostview or when printed out).

So if lwd is supposed to work in version .62.0, then there is a bug.
Or else I need a newer snapshot.

As for lty, this was just a confusion of lty="2" and lty=2, etc, as
Peter said.  Yes as you say Martin the screen resolution does enter into
it, but I was basing my comments on printouts.
