Hello, I'm trying to read data in from a file using scan(). The last field is a character string that contains blanks. I had read it in in S-Plus using this code: ifile <- list(entry=0,measure=0,st=0,count=0,score=0, error=0,inmsq=0,instd=0,outms=0,outstd=0,displc=0,ptbis=0,a=0, r="",name="") if.widths <- c(1, 5, 8, 3, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7, 2,

...aphic is saved to a postscript file under Windows. The problem came to light when using plotmath to label a plot with latitudes containing degree symbols. If expression(40 * degree) is used it is written on the default line for labels. If expression(paste(40 * degree, " S") is used it displced closer to the axis. Pasting any character (except "") has this effect. The following code illustrates the problem. par(mfrow =c(3,2)) # plotmath not used plot(seq(-41, -40, 0.5), c(0, 1, 0), type = "n", xlab = "latitude", ylab = "", xaxt = "n",...
