Kjetil, did I forget to tell you that your above "hack" has made it
(after a bit of modification) into
R 1.2 [due on Dec 15] ?
Here is the NEWS entry (under "NEW FEATURES")
o hist() now returns a "histogram" object and calls the new
function plot.histogram() for plotting.
It now also allows character labels.
--Thanks for your contribution!
