Interactive plots or graphics libraries for R?

Hello to all:

I want to be able to create regular and 3D plots that are interactive with
the mouse, so i can zoom in/out of a given zone, etc, as close as possible
as what it is done with matlab.

Are there any libraries written for R for that purpouse? I know there are
wonderful static graphics libraries, but what about interactive ones under
x-windows or any other environment?

I am using R for mac os X 10.6.

Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions!

I recommend the 'rgl' package.  It can draw 3d scatterplots, shapes, and
surfaces.  You can spin, and zoom in with the mouse.  You can record a
"movie" of the rotating graphic.
