_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Function 'linestack' plots vertical one-dimensional plots for
     numeric vectors.  The plots are always labelled, but the the
     labels are moved vertically to avoid overwriting.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     linestack(x, cex = 0.8, label = "right", hoff = 2, air = 1.1, at = 0,
         add = FALSE, axis = FALSE, ...)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

       x: Numeric vector to be plotted. 

     cex: Size of the labels. 

   label: Put labels to the '"right"' or '"left"' of the axis. 

    hoff: Distance from the vertical axis to the label in units of the
          width of letter "m". 

     air: Multiplier to string height to leave empty space between
          labels. 

      at: Position of plot in horizontal axis. 

     add: Add to an existing plot. 

    axis: Add axis to the plot. 

     ...: Other graphical parameters to labels.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     The function draws a plot and returns nothing useful.

_N_o_t_e:

     The function always draws labelled diagrams.  If you want to have
     unlabelled diagrams, you can use, e.g., 'plot', 'stripchart' or
     'rug'.
