  Hi again,

Just one little question. I don't understand what "clipping" is. 
Probably a problem with English...
Therefore the par(xpd=NA) is not really clear for me; nor is the clip() 
function. And I don't see any difference between par(xpd=NA) and nothing.

It's not really related to this post, let me know if I should change the 
subject.

Thanks,
Ivan
