Just a minor point, but the adj argument in ?text is described wrongly (0.64.1). Perhaps the following might be added to the details. Values of 0, 0.5, and 1 specify left/top, middle and right/bottom, respectively. The default is for centred text, ie \code{adj = c(0.5, 0.5)}. Cheers, Jonathan.

As I said my version is "pre 0.65" which is very much newer than 0.64.1. This just means that the documentation for text has been fixed since the release of 0.64.1...
