[R] interior and exterior colors of a map

2009-11-25 Thread dxc13 

Hi useR's,
I have an image plot I want to overlay a map of the United States on, via
map('usa').  The image is basically a large rectangular of various colors. 
When I overlay the United States map, the full rectangle of the image plot
is visible, but I only want to display the image WITHIN the United States
boundary.
Does anyone know a way to do this?
Thanks in advance,

Paul Murrell offered some worked examples of using paths from vector  
graphics in the articles and talks he has given for the grImport  
package:
