R graphics: Add labels to stacked bar chart

Question

I am looking for a way to add labels, i.e. absolute values, into a stacked bar chart using the basic plot functions of R. The labels should be inside the stacked bars.

Answer 1

How about the simple function text()?

You can simply add a string where ever you want, eg:

text (x = ..., y = ..., labels = c("foo bar 1000"))
