6## Here is some code which illustrates some of the differences between
7## R and S graphics capabilities.  Note that colors are generally specified
8## by a character string name (taken from the X11 rgb.txt file) and that line
9## textures are given similarly.  The parameter "bg" sets the background
10## parameter for the plot and there is also an "fg" parameter which sets
11## the foreground color.

26## A little color wheel.	 This code just plots equally spaced hues in
27## a pie chart.	If you have a cheap SVGA monitor (like me) you will
28## probably find that numerically equispaced does not mean visually
29## equispaced.  On my display at home, these colors tend to cluster at
30## the RGB primaries.  On the other hand on the SGI Indy at work the
31## effect is near perfect.
