Help with Plot/Legend
Thanks Jim,
What happens if I want one solid line and four custom lines
("92","11","12","62).
I tried c("10","92","11","12","62) and it said that you can't use 0's. I
also tried:
ownlines<-c("92","11","12","62)
lty=c(1,ownlines)
which resulted in the same thing.

You can create your own dashed lines: lty The line type. Line types can either be specified as an integer (0=blank, 1=solid (default), 2=dashed, 3=dotted, 4=dotdash, 5=longdash, 6=twodash) or as one of the character strings "blank", "solid", "dashed", "dotted", "dotdash", "longdash", or "twodash", where "blank" uses 'invisible lines' (i.e., does not draw them). _Alternatively, a string of up to 8 characters (from c(1:9, "A":"F")) may be given, giving the length of line segments which are alternatively drawn and skipped.

Dear R-Users I have 2 questions: Firstly, If I create a matplot and legend for multiple vectors and then tag another vector on using matlines (e.g. a 'total' of all vectors), is there anyway to add the new line to the legend without recreating it? I have created the plot this way because I would like to define the lty and lwd for the 'total' vector so that it can be differentiated from the rest. Secondly, in many of my black and white matplots there are more than 6 vectors. Unfortunately it is hard to tell them apart because the line type (lty) for plots repeats from 1 again at lty=7. Is there any way I can download new line types to avoid this? Thanks in advance for your help.
