Dear Yusuke

These changes look interesting.

Have you considered being able to specify a different shading or crosshatching 
for each box. I can't see how you can do this at present. You can get 
different colours but of course this is no good for black and white printing 
or copying.

My main aim in doing this is to get clustered box plots a.la. SPSS. Then I can 
throw SPSS away ;-)

Regards
Peter
