R help - Jan 2003 - multiple scatterplots

When I create multiple scatterplots on a page using:

 > op = par(mfrow=c(2,2))
plot( x, y, xlab="x", ylab="y", main="plot of x and
y")
etc.

I am getting plots that are rectangular, not square. Although, the 
first few times I used this command, it produced square plots. Is there 
a way to ensure that square plots are created?

Reading 
?par
gives the answer, but that takes some time. An example:

par(mfrow=c(2,2))

seems to work
