[R] panel.bpplot

[Frank E Harrell Jr]

You ignored my posting about getting Lattice to work for you (bwplot( 
... )) before trying to add panel=panel.bpplot to the command.  Once you 
learn how to use lattice you will be able to answer your own question. 
One of the things you will find out is that only a few lattice functions 
handle matrices.
