Understood.  Will head the warning about odd way to display data.

Any recommendations about where I look to find full details about "qplot".

I tried ?qplot, but it did not return full details. 

That description was missing a few items, e.g. fill, which is used below. 

Thank you again for any details you can provide. 

Cheers.

Yes, but it's generally not a terribly good way to display your data,
as it is hard to read the values of all except the series on the
bottom.

install.packages("ggplot2")
library(ggplot2)
qplot(carat, data = diamonds, binwidth = 0.1)
qplot(carat, data = diamonds, binwidth = 0.1, fill = cut)
qplot(carat, data = diamonds, binwidth = 0.1, fill = color)
qplot(carat, data = diamonds, binwidth = 0.1, fill = clarity)
