Hello,
I have a trellis plot (histograms) with layout=c(6,4,1).
I'd like tick marks only on the left and bottom sides and axes labels
only on every other panel (like the default, but with no labels or
ticks on the top and right).

scales=list(alternating=FALSE,...) puts both ticks AND labels on every
panel on the left or bottom (i.e., too many labels).

Any other ideas/tricks before I jump to scales=list(draw=FALSE) and
figure out a way to add in the desired info at the panel level?

Bonus Question:
a journal is requiring 'L' bounding boxes, yet trellis seems rather
inconsistent on it's obeying 'bty="l"' when passed as the last
argument to histogram(). Insight?

I'd prefer a trellis solution for the space efficiency, rather than
solving via mfrow() and playing with mar() calls.

Cheers,
Joel Reynolds
