would a density plot do? try
plot(density(x))
if you are specifically after the histogram tops rather than a density
estimate, then get the hist object with plot=F, then look at the counts
attribute:
histobj = hist(x, freq="TRUE", breaks=1000, plot=F)
plot(histobj$counts)
hope this helps.

I have a question.
I have a data set (about 100,000 observations). How would I get the
distribution curve graph? This is like, if I use hist(x, freq="TRUE",
breaks=1000) to get the histogram, now the question is, I don't need the
histogram itself, I just need the curve that connects the top of each
histogram bin.
Thank you very much!
