R help - May 2012 - Creating a point pattern with cartesian co-ordinates

I have the following data from an image analysis program, in which the x and
y co-ordinates are locations of the centroids of shapes on a 2 dimensional
plot. The Y co-ordinates were positive, but I changed them to negative as
the resulting scatterplot was upside down (the image analysis program reads
from the top of the image to the bottom, so it seems) I now need these as
point pattern data, as I want to subsequently add marks to them (area of
shape):

Can anybody assist?

(1) There's something funny about the data that you present below.
At least in my mailer (Thunderbird) what looks like a space between
the X and Y values turns into a NULL character when I try to copy
and paste.

(2) Create a data frame, say "M" with the X and Y values as given
in your email.

(3) Install and load the spatstat package.

(4) Do:

     W <- with(M, ripras(x=X,y=Y,shape="rectangle")
     PAT <- with(M,ppp(x=X,y=Y,window=W)
     plot(PAT)

     cheers,
