R help - Apr 2008 - "spreadsheet" in plot

Hello,
how can I print a table (lets say my table xtable contains 3 rows and 3
Columns, the fileds consists of text) directly in a plot? when I use
mtext(xtable), he tries to write everything on the same place.
Thank you in advance,
Stephan

Try this:

library(gplots) #after install.packages("gplots")
m <- matrix(sample(9), 3)
matplot(m, type='l')
par(fig = c(0.5, 1,  0, 0.5), new = T)
textplot(m, show.rownames = F, show.colnames = F, cex = 0.9)

Hi Stephan,
I think the addtable2plot function in the plotrix package might do the job.
