I have just started to learn R on linux in an X-terminal "command line" environment at the R prompt ">". When I try to run a demo it just races through all the steps and graphics leaving me with only the last few commands and results in the terminal window and a window with the last graphic. Is there a way to step through the demo command-by-command graphic-by-graphic, or, if not, how should I make use of (i.e. run) the demo? Thanks for any help

Dear Prof. Ripley:
Thanks for this.
What would need to happen to get this added to "see also" in the
"demo" help page?
Thanks again,
Spencer Graves
