Dear all,
I am trying to plot some text in bold face which works fine:
plot(0:1,0:1,type="n")
text(x=0.5, y=0.5, labels=expression(bold("the-actual-string")))
Now when I try to do the following, the displayed text reads thestring:
thestring <- "the-actual-string"
plot(0:1,0:1,type="n")
text(x=0.5, y=0.5, labels=expression(bold(thestring)))
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I assume it is rather simple
but I am stuck somehow.
Thanks in advance,
Roland
P.S. I tried it using ("ancient") R 2.7.0 on Windows32 and version 2.8.1
on GNU/Linux (Ubuntu 8.10).
