The man page for barplot (?barplot) is confusing...
<quote>
cex.axis: expansion factor for numeric axis labels.
cex.names: expansion factor for axis names (bar labels).
</quote>
What is an 'expansion factor', and what does it do in this context?
<quote>
axis.lty: the graphics parameter 'lty' applied to the axis and tick
marks of the categorical (default horizontal) axis. Note
that by default the axis is suppressed.
</quote>
This makes no sense unless you know what it does already (which I don't). So
this is more of a programmers cleft note in a 'common language' than a function
documentation page.
<quote>
say 'mp', giving the coordinates of _all_ the bar midpoints drawn,
</quote>
Say what?
