Hi Hans,
strwrap is your friend. "\n" inserts a cr in a line of text.
wordwrap<-function(x,len) paste(strwrap(x,width=len),collapse="\n")
par(mar=c(11,3,2,1))
tmp<-plot(c,axes=F)
axis(2)
axis(1,at=tmp,labels=sapply(levels(c),wordwrap,len=15),padj=1)
box()
For unique abbreviations see ?abbreviate

+ "a not so important value", "baz"), class = "factor")
plot(c)
Is there a way to get the long variable labels to automatically wrap so that
all labels can be shown?
Alternatively, is there a way to get the labels truncated, possibly with ".."
appended?
