R help - Jun 2005 - Drawing information-rich, Tufte style scatterplots and axes

I have been working on using R to draw information-rich graphs based
on suggestions from "The Visual Display of Quantitative Information"
by Edward Tufte.  Thanks to the members of the list who have helped me
with this.

I have now produced the first version of this code, which I used to
generate graphs for a paper I recently co-authored. There are
descriptions of the new functions, examples of their use and links for
downloading the source here:

If anyone has any comments or suggestions I would be very interested.

Thank you,
Steven Murdoch.

I posted a link to it on the GraphGallery page of the R Wiki:

Why not make it a package?
