Hi Burt
This looks like an interesting package. However, you should know that
'strucplot()' might not be the best choice for your generic, because
vcd::strucplot() is now well-established as the general name for
functions plotting structured multi-way frequency tables, like mosaic
plots and friends.
Would you consider a non-clashing alternative? The semantics of your
functions are like xyplot(), but without strip labels, so how about
xystripless()? That also says more directly what it does, and avoids
confusing users.
NAMESPACEs help with clashes, but make it very awkward
to use such packages together without `::` qualifiers.
best,

A new package, “stripless”, is now available on CRAN. It should be mostly of
interest to those who use Lattice graphics when there are more than a couple of
conditioning variables. Quoting from the DESCRIPTION:
For making Trellis-type conditioning plots without strip labels. This is useful
for displaying the structure of results from factorial designs and other
studies when many conditioning variables would clutter the display with layers
of redundant strip labels. Settings of the variables are encoded by layout and
spacing in the trellis array and decoded by a separate legend. The
functionality is implemented by a single S3 generic strucplot() function that
is a wrapper for the Lattice package's xyplot() function. This allows access to
all Lattice graphics capabilities in the usual way.
A vignette is in preparation, but the existing Help pages should contain
sufficient explanation and examples to get going. Feedback, suggestions,
reports of bugs or any other infelicities are welcome.
Cheers,
Bert Gunter
