#'
#' @param x0 A numeric vector or unit object indicating the
#' starting x-values of the line segments.
#' @param y0 A numeric vector, unit object, or a character vector
#' of values containing a "b" combined with a numeric value specifying
#' starting y-values of the line segments.
#' The character vector will place starting y-values relative to the
#' bottom of the most recently plotted plot according to the
#' units of the plotgardener page.
#' @param x1 A numeric vector or unit object indicating the stopping
#' x-values of the line segments.
#' @param y1 A numeric vector, unit object, or a character vector of v
#' alues containing a "b" combined with a numeric value specifying
#' stopping y-values of the line segments.
#' The character vector will place stopping y-values relative to the
#' bottom of the most recently plotted plot according to the
#' units of the plotgardener page.
#' @param default.units A string indicating the default units to use
#' if \code{x0}, \code{y0}, \code{x1}, or \code{y1} are only given as
#' numeric vectors. Default value is \code{default.units = "inches"}.
#' @param linecolor A character value specifying segment line color.
#' Default value is \code{linecolor = "black"}.
#' @param lwd A numeric specifying segment line width.
#' Default value is \code{lwd = 1}.
#' @param lty A numeric specifying segment line type.
#' Default value is \code{lty = 1}.
#' @param lineend A character value specifying line end style.
#' Default value is \code{lineend = "butt"}. Options are:
#' \itemize{
#' \item{\code{"round"}: Segment ends are rounded.}
#' \item{\code{"butt"}: Segment ends end exactly where ended.}
#' \item{\code{"square"}: Segment ends are squared.}
#' }
#' @param linejoin A character value specifying line join style.
#' Default value is \code{linejoin = "mitre"}. Options are:
#' \itemize{
#' \item{\code{"round"}: }{Line joins are rounded.}
#' \item{\code{"mitre"}: }{Line joins are sharp corners.}
#' \item{\code{"bevel"}: }{Line joins are flattened corners.}
#' }
#' @param arrow A list describing arrow heads to place at either end of
#' the line segments, as produced by the \link[grid]{arrow} function.
#' @param params An optional \link[plotgardener]{pgParams} object containing
#' relevant function parameters.
#' @param ... Additional grid graphical parameters. See \link[grid]{gpar}.
#'
#' @return Returns a \code{segments} object containing relevant
#' placement and \link[grid]{grob} information.
