OK, I found the bug in subplot (it was never tested with multiple figures).
The bug has been fixed, but probably won't make it to CRAN any time soon. In
the meantime there are a couple of work arounds.
1. create your own local copy of subplot and edit it so that the 1st 3 lines of
the body are:
type <- match.arg(type)
old.par <- par( c(type, 'usr', names(pars) ) )
on.exit(par(old.par))
(this means moving the 'type <-' line and modifying the 'old.par <-' line ).
Then use this copy instead of the one in TeachingDemos.
2. The problem comes because par('mfg') is getting updated by subplot when it
shouldn't be, you can just set par(mfg= ) yourself after each call to subplot.
3. wait a couple of days for the R-forge version to be updated, then install
the R-forge version of TeachingDemos 2.8.
Sorry for the problems and hope this helps,
