to start. Also have a look at the code for barplot.

But given that about eight percent of adult males are colour-blind to 
some degree, be careful how you pick your colours, or you'll just 
confuse some of your audience.

http://www.visibone.com/colorblind/ shows how "web-safe" colours look to 
people with colour deficient vision.  Don't bet on everyone who has 
these issues knowing they have it; I know people who discovered they 
were partially colour blind when they were in their fourties.
