Histogram Bar Spacing or Border Width
I see where you're going...yes, I could create my own histogram distribution from the data and plot it using barplot (in fact, I've already achieved the visual effect I want with barplot, so I could just expand on that). I'm hoping that I can find a way to do it with hist() to avoid duplicating the good work that has already gone in to that function. Thanks, Tom

Tom, I dealt with this once. barplot.data<- c(2,3,4,5,6) x<- barplot(barplot.data, ylim = c(0,10), space= .9,.9,.9,.9) use the space= to define the spacing between each of your barplot values. If you have groups of bars that you want together, with spaces between the groups, you have to put 0's for each of the unspaced bars.

Is there any way to control the spacing between bars in a histogram, or change the border width (I'm assuming the hist() function, though alternatives are welcome)? I'm interested in changing the visual spacing between columns in a plotted histogram. The general effect I'm looking for can be accomplished in barplots using the "width=" parameter, but I have not been able to find a way to adjust the apparent spacing in histograms. Thank you, Tom Hopper
