## Convenient xyplot with Differently Colored Margin and Plot Region

### Description

Convenient xyplot with Colored Background. Background of margin may be chosen independently from background in plot region.

### Usage

    poster.plot(x, y = NULL, type = "p",
                col = col.fg, col.axis = col.fg, col.lab = col.fg,
                col.fg = "blue", col.bg = "lavender", col.box = "cornsilk",
                xlim = NULL, ylim = NULL, xlab = "", ylab = "",
                main = "", cex = 1.2, axes = TRUE, ...)

### Arguments

`x` | A vector, data.frame or matrix. When x is data.frame or matrix only first two columns are used.
`y` | A vector or `NULL`
`type` | See Argument `type` in `par`
`col` | Color of points. If `length(col)` > 1, colors are recycled.
`col.axis` | Color of axis.
`col.lab` | Color of labels on axis.
`col.fg` | Color of foreground.
`col.bg` | Color of background outside of figure.
`col.box` | Color of background inside of figure
`xlim` | Limits of x-axis.
`ylim` | Limits of y-axis
`xlab` | Label of x-axis
`ylab` | Label of y-axis
`main` | Titel.
`cex` | Size of characters.
`axes` | Should axis be plotted?
`...` | Additional arguments to `par`.

### Details

Side effect: `par` options will remain changed so that other graphic elements can be added comfortably.

### Examples

    poster.plot(iris[,1],iris[,2],
                xlab="Sepal.Length", ylab="Sepal.Width")

    poster.plot(iris[,1], col="red", col.box="grey95", ylab="Sepal.Length")

    ## plotting lines
    n <- 200
    freq <- 1:n
    y <- sin(freq/n*4*pi)*cos(freq/n*3*pi) + 0.1*rnorm(n)
    poster.plot(y,col.fg="grey30",type="l")
