R experts - 

I'm using John Fox's sem package to analyze a simple path model (two correlated 
predictor variables directly influencing a single criterion variable):

Predictor1 -> Criterion
Predictor2 -> Criterion
Predictor1 <-> Predictor2

I'm giving a presentation on this material next week, and I'd like to use 
component-residual plots (i.e., partial residual plots) to help the audience 
visualize the effect of one the predictor variables on the criterion, 
independent of the other predictor variable.  In a simple multiple regression, 
I'd use the cr.plots function from Fox's CAR package for this, or just plot 
residuals from two models regressing my predictor of interest and the criterion 
variable separately on the other predictor variable.  Is there a way to produce 
similar plots for a path model (or generate the appropriate residuals to just 
do the plot myself)?

thanks,
Jesse
