Hi Ross -
I believe I was wrong in thinking that passing via the ...
list to stripchart() was ever allowed. Here are patches:
Add ... to the argument list
Add, at the beginning of the function:
pars <- list(...)
There are two calls to axis(). Modify these to:
axis(1, at = at, labels = names(groups), las=pars$las)
axis(2, at = at, labels = names(groups), las=pars$las)
Also col=pars$col and bg=pars$bg should probably get
passed in the call to points()
Are there also parameters that should be passed in the
call to title(), as Paul mooted in that July 2001 discussion?
