}
\alias{polygon}
\arguments{
\item{x,y}{vectors containing the coordinates of the vertices
of the polygon.}
\item{col}{an integer specifying the color to be used in
filling the polygon.  The default is to leave polygons unfilled.}
\item{border}{the color to draw the border.  The default is to
leave the border undrawn.}

given in \code{x} and \code{y}.
Note that if neither of \code{col} or \code{border} is specified
then nothing is drawn.
