Sorry for not supplying some example code for the above example. Here's an example list 'a' with histogram elements A, B, and C which are also lists.

That is not code. That is output. It is not clear how "a" was created

a

$A
$breaks

If you want to access the breaks element then try any of these untested guesses:

a$A$breaks

or:

a["A"][["breaks"]]

a$A["breaks"]

With the example on the help page for hist() you would get:

> a <- hist(islands)
> a["breaks"]
$breaks

Is there a way to index the $xname element from each of the elements of a?
