Now that I have my list of flags with theri respective values (thanks to all 
those who posted their suggestions):

   Flags Values
1       TrendOff      0
2          MOdwt      1
3    ZeroPadding      1
4     Step1HSOff      1
5  Step1NumHSOff      4
6  Step1NumHSOff      1
7    Step1ExtOff      1
8     Step2HSOff      1
9  Step2NumHSOff      4
10 Step2NumHSOff      1
11   Step2ExtOff      1
12    Step3HSOff      1
13 Step3NumHSOff      4
14 Step3NumHSOff      1
15   Step3ExtOff      1
16    Step4HSOff      1
17 Step4NumHSOff      4
18 Step4NumHSOff      1
19   Step4ExtOff      1

The next step is to insert the above list in a composite plot made up of 4 
quadrants. The top 2 quadrants are filled with a barplot, the bottom left 
quadrant is filled with a 2-tracks plot. I would like to place the flags list 
in the bottom right quadrant.
Hiow can I do that ? Maybe through using the text command recursively (once for 
each flag pairlist) ?
Please, notice taht what none of the graphs represent the flags value. 
Therefore a legend is unappropriate here. 
Here is a sketched incomplete and undebugged script to generate the composite 
plot I mentioned:

Thank tyou so much.

Hi,

it would help if you provided a minimal example.

Here is one approach I often use with the plotting package ggplot2,

parameters <- expand.grid(m=c(0, 1), s=seq(0.1, 1,length=10))

x <- seq(-5, 5, length=300)

foo <- function(m, s){
        data.frame(x=x, y=dnorm(x, m, s), m=factor(m), s=factor(s))
}

# construct a data.frame with all the data
results <- do.call(rbind, mapply(foo, m=parameters$m, s=parameters$s,  
SIMPLIFY=F))

library(ggplot2)

p1 <- qplot(x, y, data=results, geom="line", colour=s, linetype=m)

p2 <- p1 + facet_grid(m~.)

results2 <- within(results, f  <-  factor(paste("m=", m,"; s=",  s)))

p3 <- qplot(x, y, data=results2, geom="line", colour=f)

p1 # note how the legend is constructed for you

p2 # clearest imho

p3 # with 20 levels it's not very readable


Hope this helps,

baptiste
