Thanks to both David and Sarah. I'm glad I asked, as I had tried some
of the combos Sarah suggested and observed the same behavior, which
puzzled me. David, thanks for reminding me about ~ as that is a
different way to get a space into the string. I just don't use
plotmath often enough to become decent at it. Thanks again. Bryan

Hello R Masters and the Rest of Us:
The first of these works fine, the 2nd is accepted but too literal
(the "%->%" is shown in the plot label and in the wrong position).
The 3rd throws and error due to "unexpected SPECIAL". Would
someone recommend a way to format this? I want the two phrases
connected by a right arrow.
TIA, these things always elude me. Bryan

xlab1 <-expression(paste("Phase Angle ", phi, " Neat-O"))
xlab2 <- expression(paste("treatment: low stress", "high stress",
sep = "%->%"))
xlab3 <- expression(paste("treatment: low stress", %->%, "high
stress"))
plot(1:10, main = xlab1)
plot(1:10, main = xlab2)
Doesn't seem that %->% "works" without flanking terms
xlab3 <- expression(treatment*":"~low~stress %->% high~stress)
plot(1, main=xlab3)
Or:
xlab3 <- expression("treatment: low stress" %->% high~stress)
plot(1, main=xlab3)
