<h2>Grid Graphics</h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>
General information about the grid graphics package.
</p>
<h3>Details</h3>
<p>
Grid graphics provides an alternative to the standard R graphics.
The user is able to define arbitrary rectangular regions (called
<EM>viewports</EM>) on the graphics device and define a number of
coordinate systems for each region. Drawing can be specified to occur
in any viewport using any of the available coordinate systems.
</p>
<p>
Grid graphics and standard R graphics do not mix!
</p>
<p>
Type <code>library(help = grid)</code> to see a list of (public)
Grid graphics functions.
