Rotated text for axis labels should be possible with one of
par(srt=90)
axis(1,at,labels)
par(srt=0)
or
axis(1,at,labels,srt=90)
(or similar with crt instead of srt)
None of these works in pre0.65 or in 0.64.2

The standard way to get rotated axis labels used to be par(las = {0,1,2,3}) The doc (?par) has las: numeric in {0,1,2,3}; the style of axis labels. 0 always parallel to the axis [default], 1 = always horizontal, 2 = always perpendicular to the axis, 3 = always vertical. Try par(mfrow=c(2,2)) for(las in 0:3) plot(1, las = las, main = paste("las =",las)) Martin Maechler <maechler@stat.math.ethz.ch> http://stat.ethz.ch/~maechler/ Seminar fuer Statistik, ETH-Zentrum SOL G1 Sonneggstr.33 ETH (Federal Inst.

Do you want this exact behaviour, or would always obeying the srt= option make more sense?
