Hi, I would like to add a dash (?) on a letter in R. How can I add a dash on letter P in the following: mtext(text=expression(Winter(DJF)~mean~daily~precipitation~italic(P)), side=3, line=1, cex=1.3, col="black") ?plotmath could not provide an answer to my problem. many thanks for your solutions. Asong.
I got the right answer: mtext(text=expression(Winter(DJF)~mean~daily~precipitation~bar(italic(P))), side=3, line=1, cex=1.3, col="black") Thanks.

For example, mtext(text=expression(Winter(DJF)~mean~daily~precipitation~bar(italic(P))), side=3, line=1, cex=1.3, col="black") Duncan Murdoch
