[R] Something similar to layout in lattice or ggplot

[Abhijit Dasgupta, PhD]

  Hi Thierry,

It's really the latter I want..independent plots. I use faceting quite a 
bit, but I need things like a page of plots for simulations under 
different conditions. I suppose I can still use faceting combined with 
reshape, but I'd rather not go that route if I can help it.
