#' Background and grid color control.
#' 
#' Some users like background colors, and it may be helpful to have grid lines
#' to read off e.g. probabilities from a Kaplan-Meier graph. Both things can be
#' controlled with this function. However, it mainly serves
#' \code{\link{plot.prodlim}}.
#' 
#' 
#' @param xlim Limits for the xaxis, defaults to par("usr")[1:2].
#' @param ylim Limits for the yaxis, defaults to par("usr")[3:4].
#' @param bg Background color. Can be multiple colors which are then switched
#' at each horizontal line.
#' @param fg Grid line color.
#' @param horizontal Numerical values at which horizontal grid lines are
#' plotted.
#' @param vertical Numerical values at which vertical grid lines are plotted.
#' @param border The color of the border around the background.
