Hi
If you use a Microsoft OS and you just want to do a °C in the text there is
the alternative of using ASCII
Just press the keys Alt-248. Have used it for a number of years with success.
Also applies to other characters and without having to go to plotmath etc
You just need to be careful of the code page etc for it to work.

Readers, I have tried to use a plotmath command to add the temperature
degree sign (i.e. áµ C) to the axis label of a graph: > x<-(1:10) >
y<-(200:191) > plot(x~y,ylab=expression(*degree~C)) Error: syntax error,
unexpected '*', expecting ',' in "plot(x~y,ylab=expression(*" According to
plotmath manual, the syntax is '*degree' and I am able to use this command
when a number precedes the asterisk (e.g. ylab=expression(0*degree~C)).
But I want to omit the need for a number before the degree sign. Any
advice please? ______________________________________________
