[R] Boxplot, formula interface, and labels.

[David L Carlson]

Just change the separator:

data(Titanic)
Titanic.df <- as.data.frame(Titanic)
boxplot(Freq~Class*Sex, Titanic.df, cex.axis=.6, sep="\n")

See attached .png.

mybp <- boxplot(count ~ geno * tissue, data = mydata, plot = FALSE) mybp$names <- gsub("\\.", "\n", mybp$names)

See ?boxplot for details.
