Make a boxplot without whiskers

Question

I have made box-plots for the onset values of three different groups using the box-plot function in R like so:

boxplot(onset ~ group, data = pulse.dat, range = 0, col = "lightblue")

However, I want to see how the data looks without the range, so I want to create a box-plot without the whiskers. I also wouldn't mind any kind of graph as long as it displays the median, 25th and 75th quartile for each of the 3 groups.

Does anyone know how I can do this in R?

"Quantiles" or "percentiles", not quartiles. And you should realize that `boxplot` is not plotting the 25th and 75th quantiles. See `?boxplot.stats` — IRTFM, Jul 25 '13 at 22:05

Under boxplot pars...

 d <- rnorm(1:100, 100, 10)
 boxplot(d, whisklty = 0, staplelty = 0)

whisklty gets rid of the lines or whiskers

staplelty gets rid of the ends or staples
