[R] reading graph metadata text from a file

[Bert Gunter]

... But is I understand correctly,this is certainly straightforward without
textplot,too...

e.g. 
mylegend <- "Some text...\n Some more text"
mytitle <- "This is a title"
plot(0:1,0:1, main = mytitle)
legend(.2,.2,leg=mylegend, bty="n")

Naturally, this could all be "functionized" and the various text arguments
passed as arguments to the function (see ?plot.default or its code); or they
could be components of a list, or ...

You may want to use the textplot function from the gplots package rather
than the legend.
