R help - Oct 2007 - How put description under the graph (using different lines)

Hello,
I need to use barplot' graphs, but under the graph I need to put different
things. The structure of this graph must be:

                  MY GRAPH
------------------------------------------------------
                  description 1
-----------------------      -------------------------
description2             description3


where:
-description 1, description 2 and description 3 are  the variables' names
that I must to change on my different barplot.
-MY GRAPH belongs barplot's graph.
The 3 lines (it is paited on sctructure of the graph) must to be painted on
my graph.

I think it is possible but I don't achieve to do it.  Can anybody help me,
please?

Thanks.

If your descriptions are just 1 line each then you can give yourself
extra room at the bottom with par(mar=c(...
Then use the mtext function to add the descriptions.  If the
descriptions are more detailed then you can try something like:
> library(gplots)
> layout( rbind( 1,2,c(3,4) ) )
> barplot(1:10)
> textplot('this is the first description', cex=1)
> textplot('this is the second',cex=1)
> textplot('and the third',cex=1)
But play with the 'heights' argument to layout to get the heights how
you want them to be.

Hope this helps,
