Dear Michael, Try ggplot2. Use something like
install.packages("ggplot2") library(ggplot2) recov <- 0:2 n <- 1000 all <- data.frame(bbED = rnorm(3 * n, mean = recov), recov = factor(rep(recov, n))) ggplot(data = all, aes(x = bbED)) + geom_histogram() + facet_grid(. ~ recov) ggplot(data = all, aes(x = bbED)) + geom_histogram() + facet_grid(recov ~ .) ggplot(data = all, aes(x = bbED, colour = recov)) + geom_density() You'll find more information on ggplot2 at http://had.co.nz/ggplot2/ HTH, Thierry ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- ir.

The commands below produce a 3 page PDF with each histogram occupying the upper right quadrant. And use slightly different scales on the X and Y axes. > s21 <- dat[dat$sc_recov=="21",] > s21.ED <- subset(s21, select=(bbED)) > s31 <- all[all$sc_recov=="31",] > s31.ED <- subset(s31, select=(bbED)) > s41 <- all[all$sc_recov=="41",] > s41.ED <- subset(s41, select=(bbED)) > pdf("234_1_ED.pdf") > par(mfrow = c(2, 2), oma = c(0, 0, 2, 0)) > hist(s21.ED) + hist(s31.ED) + hist(s41.ED) > dev.off() Also, for example if I add something like col="x", or main="x" to the hist(x, ...) nothing appears on the plot. ?
