## usage: subplot (rows, columns, index)
##        subplot (rcn)
##
## Sets plot in multiplot mode and plots in location
## given by index (there are columns X rows subwindows)
##
## Input:
##
##   rows   : number of rows in subplot grid
##   columns: number of columns in subplot grid
##   index  : index of subplot where to make the next plot
##
## If only one arg, then it (crn) has to be three digit value
## specifying the location in digit 1 (rows) and 2 (columns) and digit
## 3 is the plot index
##
## The plot index runs row-wise,i.e., first all the columns in a row
## are filled and then the next row is filled
##
## For example, plot with 4 X 2 grid, will have plot indices running as
## follows:
##
