When I am trying to put a legend on a plot where I am using "lines", R just ignores it. I can do it with boxplot or plot, but just not with lines. Am I doing something wrong? Maybe I am just making a mistake? Anna
Yes, I am using plot and then lines. The legend is just not appearing. I am using the coordinates of the legend (150,4) which work on boxplot and plot. I have not looked at the output of par (I don't know how to) to see if they are in the region. I assumed if they worked for plot and boxplot they would also for lines.

Anna, I found this quite useful in positioning a legend: plot(1:10, 1:10) legend(locator(1), "A legend") Now, go to the plot window and click your left mouse where you want the upper left corner of the legend to appear. Ithink, this should work no matter what your coordinate system is.

Fred,
[from help on pairs() ]:
...
Arguments:
x: the coordinates of points given as columns of a matrix.
So yes, pairs will do what you ask. See ?pairs for more info.
Also you might consider the alternative function from the lattice package:
> library(lattice) #load lattice graphics package
> ?splom #help for splom()
Which is called differently using a formula interface.
