I guess R is not the best choice for this kind of applications at this
moment (correct me, if I'm wrong). Interacting with graphs is AFAIK
limited to the use of locator(). Creating functions, that will provide
you with some information (what kind?) about plotted data via
locator(), would require considerable work with coding.

I've heard, that LispStat is good at this kind of jobs. I don't have
any experience with it, thats what "rumours" say.


I hope this helps
and good luck
