[Rd] the C function drawing a rectangle: heatmap() -> image()-> do_image() -> GRect() -> GERect() -> rect()

But rect() still seems to call -> do_rect() -> GRect(), and thus turns back?? How do you consider this strange thing? Thanks!

However, then it refers to rect() which further seems to refer to do_rect(), and then, surpringly, do_rect refers to GRect()!!! A dependency circle! How can it work if no functions soly taking the job for drawing a rectangle?

I see GRect() calling GERect() calling dd->dev->rect(), i.e. a function 
in the current device structure. This will typically have been set to 
something like X11_Rect() or Cairo_Rect() or ....
