[R] Lattice .ps graphic is rotated in LaTeX slides

[Michael Friendly]

That does indeed work!  I had read the arguments section of ?postscript, 
but this will teach me to read
the details.  There could/should be a trellis.device("eps", ...) that 
supplies the appropriate defaults.

For the perversely inclined I was able to use my original .ps file in 
this contorted way:

 \rotatebox{180}{\includegraphics[angle=90,height=.6\textheight]{fig/barley2x3.ps}}


thanks,
-Michael
