There is the zoomplot function in the TeachingDemos package that allows you to
zoom in/out the current plot. But it is a bit of a kludge. The better option
is probably to just set the xlim and ylim arguments in a new plot command. You
can use the locator function as one way to find the coordinates to pass to xlim
and ylim.
For adding the zoomed areas, you can use the layout function to set up the
device with one big area on top and multiple smaller areas below to place the
zooms in, or you can use the subplot function from the TeachingDemos package to
add the zooms to uninteresting/empty areas of the current plot.
Hope this helps,
