Hi, I would like to save a plot without opening the device window (no display). Is it possible ? How can I do it ?

How can I do it ?You must open a device to generate a plot, but not necessarily on the screen: e.g. postscript() prints to a postscript file. See ?Devices for a list of possible devices.

How can I do it ?It is not possible. savePlot records the graphics commands in the device's playlist, so there has to be a playlist. Logically you cannot `save' a non-existent plot. savePlot is Windows-only, and you can plot directly on any of the devices it uses, so I don't see any need for this. -- Brian D.

Generally, it is simple. You just open the corresponding device (not display window), e.g. postscript(file="myfile.ps", ...options...) plot( whatever you want to plot ) dev.off() Now the plot is saved into the postscript file and nothing happens on the screen. The available devices depend on your installation, look ?Devices.
