plotarc: Plots the data imported from an ARC file

In RArcInfo: Functions to import data from Arc/Info V7.x binary coverages

Description

Taking as argument the list returned by the get.arcdata function, this function plots all the arcs. With the argument new the user can decide whether to plot on a new window/device or on the last window/device.

If the user provides the arguments 'xlim' and 'ylim' they will be used when calling the 'plot' function. Other way, the real boundary of the plotted arcs will be used.

Usage

plotarc(arc, new=TRUE, index=NULL, xlim, ylim, ...)

Arguments

arc	The data returned by a call to get.arcdata
new	Do you want to plot on the last window/device or on a new one?
index	A vector containing the indexes of the arcs to be plotted. If it nos supplied all the arcs will be plotted.
xlim	x limits
ylim	y limits
...	Options to be passed to a call to the function plot when creating the display (i. e., window or file).

Value

This function returns nothing, but plots a nice map :-D.
