Hello,

As far as I can see the above code plots two graphs, one with filled and
one striped. I'd like to have filled and striped bars within the same
stacked dataset of the same plot (e.g filled red bar, then striped red
bar on top of the fileld red bar).

But maybe I can alter your code so that I construct the plot bar by bar
setting par(new = FALSE) (re-using the same plotting window). I'd have
to recalculate the x-positions for all the bars that have to be on-top
of the previous bars whenever I call barplot.

	thanks for the suggestion,

	Arne
