Greetings, I would like to display the R graphics window on one monitor of my computer while simultaneously working with the R console and multiple script windows in another monitor. Is this possible? I know I can use Tinn R or something similar but I would prefer not to use these secondary programs if possible. Any advice would be appreciated.

See ?X11 for an example if you're using X, but I'm guessing you're not. It looks like ?windows might have some useful information about setting the default positions for Windows users, see xpos and ypos argument description.
