#' Lines: horizontal, vertical, and specified by slope and intercept.
#'
#' These paired geoms and stats add straight lines to a plot, either
#' horizontal, vertical or specified by slope and intercept. These are useful
#' for annotating plots.
#'
#' These geoms act slightly different to other geoms. You can supply the
#' parameters in two ways: either as arguments to the layer function,
#' or via aesthetics. If you use arguments, e.g.
#' \code{geom_abline(intercept = 0, slope = 1)}, then behind the scenes
#' the geom makes a new data frame containing just the data you've supplied.
#' That means that the lines will be the same in all facets; if you want them
#' to vary across facets, construct the data frame yourself and use aesthetics.
#'
#' Unlike most other geoms, these geoms do not inherit aesthetics from the plot
#' default, because they do not understand x and y aesthetics which are
#' commonly set in the plot. They also do not affect the x and y scales.
#'
#' @section Aesthetics:
#' These geoms are drawn using with \code{\link{geom_line}} so support the
#' same aesthetics: alpha, colour, linetype and size. They also each have
#' aesthetics that control the position of the line:
#'
#' \itemize{
#'   \item \code{geom_vline}: \code{xintercept}
#'   \item \code{geom_hline}: \code{yintercept}
#'   \item \code{geom_abline}: \code{slope} and \code{intercept}
#' }
#'
#' @seealso See \code{\link{geom_segment}} for a more general approach to
#'   adding straight line segments to a plot.
#' @inheritParams layer
#' @inheritParams geom_point
#' @param xintercept,yintercept,slope,intercept Parameters that control the
#'   position of the line. If these are set, \code{data}, \code{mapping} and
#'   \code{show.legend} are overridden
