If I use mfrow=c(2,3), and produce my plots one after the other, I will end up with three plots in the first row, and 2 in the second row, which is what I want. However, I would like the two plots in the second row to be moved to the centre of that row, rather than occupying the two left-most cells.

There is a book called `Gráficos Estadísticos con R' under "contributed
documentation" in the main R website. It should prove useful. The book
is in spanish, but as it is a "graphical" manual, it should not matter
much. If in troubles email me privately.

Cheers,
