Why do you take 2.54? I think you forgot a bracket...
#par(mar = c(max(strwidth(names(x)) * 2.54, 4,4,2))
#
#should be
par(mar = c(max(strwidth(names(x))) * 2.54, 4,4,5))
#and 5 would be a better value. But this is merely trial and error?!

barplot(x, las = 3)

Dear members,
Is there a way to turn a strwidth of a string into a number of
lines that ist needed to display the string when using par(mar =
c(?,4,4,2))
####
x = 1:5
names(x) = c("ZZZZZ","ZZZZZzzzzz","ZZZlllll","TTTTT","Zzhtsddfg" )
par(mfrow = c(1,2))
par(mar = c(8,4,4,2))
barplot(x, las = 3, main = "8 is to much")
par(mar = c(4,4,4,2))
barplot(x, las = 3, main = "4 is not enough")
###
strwidth2lines...
