[R] Plot Lines instead of colour bands in R

We have no idea: This email list strips most attachments. I'm almost
certain that you don't need all of your "too large" data to provide a
small reproducible example, either. Please see

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5963269/how-to-make-a-great-r-reproducible-example

for some ideas on how to do that without requiring attachments.

If this is something specific to the package you mention, it might be
worthwhile to start by asking the package maintainer for help.

Please load my attached sample data (I used dput(lapply(sim.summary,head,1)) but the data are too large) to R, install "Rglimclim" package and run this code which shows an example plot I would like to change. My main function, "myplot" is found in the attached R object:

That is, I want to specify various inbuilt R line types/line colours/line width for quantiles=c(0,0.025,0.5,0.975,1). The colours can be removed by setting colours in colours.sim=c("magenta","darkorchid1","deeppink3","yellow") to "white".
