Here is a little function that will show available colors in groups of 100 at a time.
I've only tested it in an X windows environment.


function (indx = 0:6)
{
    for (ii in unique(indx)) {
        is <- 100 * ii + 1:100
        if (min(is) > length(colors())) {
            cat("Maximum value of arg is", floor(length(colors())/100),
                "\n")
            return(NULL)
        }
        foo <- matrix(colors()[is], nrow = 10)
        par(mar = c(3, 3, 0.25, 0.25))
        plot(1:10, 1:10, type = "n", yaxt = "n", xlab = "", ylab = "")
        axis(2, at = 1:10, lab = 10:1)
        for (j in 1:10) {
            for (i in 1:10) {
                points(j, 11 - i, col = foo[i, j], pch = 16,
                  cex = 4)
                text(j, 11 - i - 0.3, foo[i, j], cex = 0.8)
            }
        }
        if (length(indx) > 1 & ii < max(indx))
            readline(paste("Currently showing group", ii, "  CR to continue "))
    }
    invisible(foo)
}

Hi,

Very so often when i am plotting something, doing a histogram, or
whatever i am struggling to find out which are the numbers for
different colors, palette names, types of lines, symbols, etc. Is
there any documentation on line with all these numbers / names
and the associated symbol / color???

For example if i am using the command image it uses a palette
from red to yellow, with red the lowest value, and yellow the highest
value. What if i want a reverse palette, with green the lowest value
and yellow middle values and red highest value??? Or much more
simple, just yellow lowest value and red highest value???

Thank you for assistance,

Monica
