ggplot2 ------------------------------------------------------------
ggplot2 is a plotting system for R, based on the grammar of graphics,
which tries to take the good parts of base and lattice graphics and
avoid bad parts. It takes care of many of the fiddly details
that make plotting a hassle (like drawing legends) as well as
providing a powerful model of graphics that makes it easy to produce
complex multi-layered graphics.

examples of ggplot in use. If you're interested, you can also sign up to

ggplot2 0.8.2 (2008-02-23)
----------------------------------------
New features
* borders, fortify.map and map_data to make it easier to draw map
borders and choropleth maps
* cut_interval and cut_number utility functions to discretise
continuous variables
* stat_summary has reparameterised to make it easier to specify
different summary functions. It now has four parameters: fun.y,
fun.ymin and fun.ymax; and fun.data. See the documentation for
stat_summary for more details
Minor improvements
* ggfluctuation: default to aspect ratio that produces squares
* ggsave: filename now first parameter, not second
* qplot: if sample aesthetic is used, stat automatically set to qq
* scale_datetime: improved breaks calculation
* scale_gradient: better default colour scheme from red to blue
(thanks to Charlotte Wickham for providing the Munsell colours)
* scale_size and scale_area: increased default size range
* stats: all give useful error message if missing a required aesthetic
* theme_set warns if missing needed theme elements
* theme_text: now possible to right and left align text with hjust=0
and hjust=1 respectively
Bug fixes
* be explicit about plyr::is.discrete to avoid clash with Hmisc
* facet_wrap: work around R bug so no longer crashers when ncol = 1
* geom_errorbar now works correctly with dashed lines
* geom_path will now silently ignore lines with less than 2 points
(instead of throwing a mysterious error as before)
* geom_path now responds to the size aesthetic once more
* geom_polygon etc now correctly displays linetype on legends
* geom_step now works with multiple groups
* geom_vline and geom_hline: fix bug when mapping intercept to
variable in data frame
* ggsave: path parameter correctly sets path
* guides: fix broken legend from default stat aesthetics (e.g. for stat_sum)
* scale_manual now works better with missing values
* scale_manual: labels now correctly sets legend labels.
* stat_density_2d: no longer passes unnecessary parameters to kde2d
causing an error message (seen when setting aesthetics with qplot)
* stat_pointrange: better relationship between point and line widths
* stat_sum now correctly preserves other aesthetic columns (should be
a bit faster too)

Hadley
