I ran this script in a source file on my Mac:
library(lattice)
year <- 1900:2000
dollars <- (year-1899)^2
plot(year,dollars)
quartz("year")
histogram(~dollars)
The first plot appears in Quartz 2. The second quartz window, named year, opens
but the histogram doesn't appear.
However, when I copy and paste this script directly into the R console, both
quartz windows (Quartz 2 and year) open and both plots appear.
As a counter example, the script below run as a source file, works as expected,
and I get two plots in two windows:
library(lattice)
year <- 1900:2000
dollars <- (year-1899)^2
plot(year,dollars)
quartz("year")
plot(year, dollars)
How do I get the lattice package to generate multiple plots in multiple windows
from a script run from a source file?
Thank you ahead of time,
Sarah B.

Perhaps you're a victim of FAQ 7.22. Try putting a print () around your plot call - e.g., print(histogram(~ dollars)). And please read said FAQ to understand why...
