[R] color key with xyplot

Do you mean a colorkey as is usually drawn in levelplot (and not key) ? 
xyplot is not designed to draw color keys directly. You could use the key
argument to xyplot to emulate it somewhat 
(something like key = list(rect = list(col = 1:7), space = "right"))

Alternately, you could modify the object produced by xyplot to add a colorkey
component, which would be enough to fool print.trellis:

foo <- xyplot(<whatever>)
foo$colorkey <- list(col = 1:7,  at = 1:8, tick.number = 10)
print(foo)
