[R] [FORGED] change text size on a graphics

[Jim Lemon]

Hi Carol,
If you are using the "barlabels" function in the plotrix package, just
add the usual "cex" argument to the call. Using the first example in
the help page:

heights<-c(14,20,9,31,17)
barpos<-barplot(heights,main="A redundant bar plot")
barlabels(barpos,heights+1,prop=1,cex=1.5)

Jim
