R help - Jun 2008 - attention plot

Dear all,

I am looking for a method to draw multiple rectangles in different 
colors plus arrows between them (given a data matrix with the relevant 
coordinate and size information).

After looking around mainly on:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/views/Graphics.html
and the Rseek page
the Grid package seems one possible way to go.

Are there better suited packages for such graphs?

Thanks for a pointer
Best
Michael

Perhaps gplot from sna package?

library(gplot)
gplot(rgraph(5), vertex.sides = 4, vertex.cex = 1:5, vertex.col = 1:5)
