R help - Dec 2011 - Labelling R plots using Greek letters

Dear R Users, 


Please I have the following query. I want to label  one of the axes of my graph
with the follwing latex expression- \beta^{\prime}x, i.e I have the transpose of
beta. How do I go abt this.

My second query is similar but it has to do with the conditioning symbol. The
other axis is to be labelled as Y|X + \beta^{\prime}x.


Thank you very much as I await assistance on this.

John

?plotmath

plot(1,1, xlab=expression(beta^"`"*X),
ylab=expression(Y*"|"*X
+beta^"`"*X) )

(Unfortunately the prime on the y lab is noe on the printed page in my  
device ( mac). so this hack seems to work better)

plot(1,1, xlab=expression(beta^"'"*X),  
ylab=expression(over(phantom(""),
Y*"|"*X+beta^"'"*X) ))
