R help - Nov 2011 - triangles point left, filled?

Dear R users,

I want to plot not only triangles point up and triangles point down,
which is easy using the "pch" argument to "points". I want
to plot left and right pointing triangles as well. They must be fillable with
colour.

I browsed a little in the documentation, tried rotating the up and down pointing
triangles, but of no avail. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Regards,
Martin Ivanov

Hi Martin,
Have a look at the "my.symbols" function in the TeachingDemos package.
