margin between plot region and axes

My question: is there a way to add axes the usual way (as tried for

the

first graphic), but to erase the margin, so that the axes start at

point

(0/0) in my case.

Not really sure if this is what you ask, but maybe you should call
your first plot() with xaxs="i" and yaxs="i". It reduces the default
4% increase on data range on both axis.

thanks for your answer and sorry for the weak explanation of the
problem.
To put it another way:
consider the following simple statement:
hist(rnorm(100))
how can I influence drawing of the axis so that they lie directly on the
edges of the bars? The solution on this I think could directly be
applied to my problem.
