Arguments

leg

states for the discrete character in the order of colors.

colors

colors for the legend in the order of leg, or, if leg=NULL, named vector of colors in which names(colors are the states of the mapped discrete character.

prompt

logical value indicating whether the location of the legend should be obtained interactively (i.e., by clicking in the plotting area).

Redundant with legend, which is much more powerful but somewhat more complicated to use.
