Look at the argument "new" under ?par.

Probably better way is to use the following sequence:

plot(...)   # whatever your first plot is.
lines(...)  # add line to the existing plot.
points(...) # add points to the existing plot.

There are many other functions that add to the existing plot.

HTH,
Andy
