[R] Fancy Ticks in Plots

[Lorenzo Isella]

Dear All,
I am pretty satisfied with R for my plotting, but there are a few 
subtleties which I cannot figure out.
Consider figure 1 in the paper at the link below

Can I have the same kind of ticks in an R-generated figure (that is to 
say: ticks along the 4 axis, and in a log-log plot I'd like a larger 
tick for any power of 10).
I did a bit of googling, but I was not able to come across what I wanted.
Any suggestions/examples are welcome.
Cheers

Lorenzo
