R help - May 2004 - modifying the text size in splom

All,

I have long variable names that are being fed through splom (R 1.8.1). I'd
like to resize the text printed on the diagonals to better display the
names (unless anyone can suggest another approach - creative use of
varnames). I've looked at the code, R-Help, ?splom and the Trellis
User's
Guide to no avail.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance,

Not really much you can do in 1.8.1. If you upgrade to 1.9.0, you could 
do 

splom(<...>, varname.cex = .5)

and you could even supply your own function to draw the diagonal panels.
