Now that's a really bad idea in my book... The "ex" in "cex" is *ex*actly for *ex*pansion, also note the consistency with "mex". > (The documentation for 'barplot' uses 'expansion factor', while the > documentation for 'par' itself uses two other different terms > 'magnification' and 'scaling' to describe various 'cex' related > arguments.

Yup, but I think it is ?par that could use fixing. (The description of "mex" in there is a bit iffy as well. Why mix character sizes into something that really deals in interline distances?) > (2) add "par" to the "see also" section Obvious. In a bunch of other places too, I guess. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
