getAbsoluteWidth

The "npc" <code><a href="/link/unit?package=Gmisc&version=3.0.3" data-mini-rdoc="Gmisc::unit">unit</a></code> is not absolute, i.e.
it depends on the relation between height and width within
the current viewport. We therefore need to change these values
to the value most likely intended. This is believed to be the
main direction of the arrow as specified by the first and last
bezier control points <code>x</code> and <code>y</code>.

Tools for making the descriptive "Table 1" used in medical
articles, a transition plot for showing changes between categories
(also known as a Sankey diagram), flow charts by extending the grid package,
a method for variable selection based on the SVD, Bézier lines with arrows
complementing the ones in the 'grid' package, and more.
