R help - Nov 2006 - margins within plotting region

Hi list,

there always seem to be a small margin between the actual plot and the 
axes/box around the plot. For instance, in

plot(c(0,1),c(0,1))

the 2 points do not lay on the box around the plot but slightly more to 
the center. Which parameter controls this margin and is it possible to 
eliminate it?

thanks,

Wouter

See ?par:

par(xaxs = "i", yaxs = "i")
plot(0:1, 0:1)
