Just want to express MHO that the graphics produced by wmf.graph() in Splus
6 for Linux is only of barely acceptable quality (e.g., hallow circles were
drawn too thick, making the plot look rather awkward).

No, yes.
It's a frequently asked-for addition on Linux, but no one has managed to
contribute code to do it. There's a world of difference between calling
Windows API functions and fathoming out how to write a file in an
ill-documented format.
BTW, S-PLUS 6 for Linux *can* do this, which reduces the motivation to
solve this in R for some of us.
