#' Multiple plot function
#'
#' Plots multiple plots in the same plot window.
#' ggplot objects can be passed in ..., or to plotlist (as a list of ggplot objects)
#'
#' If the layout is something like matrix(c(1,2,3,3), nrow=2, byrow=TRUE),
#' then plot 1 will go in the upper left, 2 will go in the upper right, and
#' 3 will go all the way across the bottom.
#' From Winston Chang: \link{http://www.cookbook-r.com/Graphs/Multiple_graphs_on_one_page_(ggplot2)/}
#' @param cols Number of columns in layout
#' @param layout A matrix specifying the layout. If present, 'cols' is ignored.
#' @examples
#' ggplot(mtcars, aes(x = mpg, y = wt, colour = cyl)) + geom_point() + theme_xAxis()
