Subject: Adding Year-Month-Day to X axis
In-Reply-To: <CA+8X3fVvqroBKDJJaSpLTDUwoHGXTgZKZNV7inniBFdmB3=M2A@mail.gmail.com>
Since the horizontal axis side=1 is year-month-day, how do I issue an abline command to draw dashed vertical lines, as a background grid, within the graph?s border? Similar to the abline command I call below, in blue, for dashed horizontal lines, as a background grid.
