\title{barplot filled with symbols}
\description{
 Produces a barplot where each piece of the barplot is filled with the
 number of symbols equal to the size of the bar
}
\usage{
 symbolbarplot(height,width=1,space=NULL,names.arg=NULL,
  legend.text=NULL,beside=FALSE,horiz=FALSE,col=heat.colors(NR),
  border=par("fg"),main=NULL,sub=NULL,xlab=NULL,ylab=NULL,xlim=NULL,
  ylim=NULL,axes=TRUE,axisnames=TRUE,inside=TRUE,plot=TRUE,rel.width=0.8,
  symbol="circles",symbbox=TRUE,debug=FALSE,...)
