cairo is not the default when available
...iro or X11 is being used because cairo does
antialiasing, and X11 does not:
plot(read.table("in.txt"));
Whether cairo is the default is decided in
src/library/grDevices/R/zzz.R in the onLoad function:
list(bitmapType = if(capabilities("aqua")) "quartz"
else if(.Call(C_cairoProps, 2L)) "cairo" else "Xlib")
and
if (.Platform$OS.type != "windows" && !.Call(C_cairoProps, 2L))
X11.options(type = "Xlib")
cairoProps is in src/library/grDevices/src/init.c:
static SEXP cairoProps(SEXP in)
{
int which = asInteger(in);...
