R help - Jun 2011 - draw text outside plot boundaries

i'd like to use the text() function to annotate some points, but the
labels get cropped, if the point is on the right

is there a way to prevent this, and tell the text() function to allow
writing outside the boundaries of the current plot?

i don't mind if it looks "messy" and  steps on the margin a bit.

Go to ?par and check out the 'xpd' parameter.
