How to put text in the axis for each point in the plot rotated?

I am using

plot(0:length(x)-1,x)
set(gca,'XTick',0:length(words)-1,'XTickLabel',cellstr(words));

to put some text for each point in the plot on the abscissa but since they are too much is not possible to read them when exporting the figure as an image.

I was thinking to show them, still on the abscissa, but rotated so that they do not overlap (or at least they overlap less). Is there a way? Thanks in advance.

plot(0:length(x),x) should fail, because 0:length(x) has one elements more than x.

ok sorry I corrected it. It was understandable by the way.

any many more. You see, searching in the FileExchange is a good idea.
