R help - Jan 2008 - modifing barplot

Hi,
 
I would like to modify how barplot .... plots. For reasons only my supervisor
comprehends i need to do the crisscross lines in the bar thicker. If i use lwd=2
the y-axis is thicker, (i use the option beside = TRUE)  but nothing else is
affected by this parameter - it seems. I looked at the barplot.r code but i am
afraid i don't quite understand it so ..... i am at loss.
 
I am using windows xp and R 2.6.1.
 
I will really appreciate if anybody has any idea how to do it.
 
Thanks,
 
Monica

- Please send plain text mails.
- So you REALLY want shading lines?
Anyway, set the line width option for the current device prior to 
calling barplot():

par(lwd=2)
barplot(...)
