[R] adding text to a plot created with strat.plot() from package rioja

[Jason Paul Joines]

     I'm pretty new to R and finding the responsible line would not have 
been obvious to me without your help.  I downloaded the source for 
package Rioja and was surprised to see that each function was supplied 
in it's own file.  That made it pretty straightforward to copy, modify, 
and use my own version of it.  Still, it's going to take quite a while 
to get familiar with all of the graphical capabilities of R.


Thanks,

Jason
