R doesn't support 3D histograms?

Hi, I've been using R since a while now to make 2D histograms. I have some data (appended) that would like to use to make a 3-D plot with x being the first variable in the file, y the second and the height, or z the third variable. How can I do it in R? I would like to have 3-D visualization of this plot. Preferably as a lego plot, that is, a set of stacks that grow with respect to the value of z, which have their delta x and delta y lengths equivalent to the spacings between the values of x and y. Other people also call it a 3-D histogram.
There are some 3D contributed packages available. Mine (djmrgl) has a function called hist3d() that might do what you want. It's available for Windows only from my web page <http://www.stats.uwo.ca/faculty/murdoch/software> One of my projects for the summer is to merge djmrgl with the other OpenGL project by Daniel Adler; then (and possibly now) a cross-platform 3D histogram will be available.
