R help - Mar 2001 - Reading images ...

Is there a way to read a (for example) postscript (or tiff, jpg, whatever)
file into R and plot it using the R fundamentals?  I want to incorporate a
drawing in an R plot and I can't see a way of doing this at the moment.

TIA

John

the e1071 package contains functions for reading/writing PNM images.

plotting them is something different, though ...
