.ps and .pdf page size differences in FC vs. Debian
R version: 2.0.0
OS: Fedora Core 1
When I'm using Fedora Core 1, Rplots.ps (and subsequent Rplots.pdf
created after using ps2pdf Rplots.ps) which are created from the command
line execution of R are too large to fit on a US Letter sized page when
printed. The same code will produce a US letter sized page when I'm on
my Debian Sid box. Both boxes are connected to the same shared

"%03d" in the pdf command

title = "R Graphics Output", fonts = NULL, version = "1.1",

Renaming Rplots.ps from BATCH scripts.
I often use R CMD BATCH to run my files (e.g. script.R), and get the
output recorded in script.Rout -- this is great. On my setup (R.2.3.0
on linux), if any plots are created, they get stored in Rplots.ps.
This can get confusing if I have several batch scripts in one
directory.
I've written a simple shell script to rename Rplots.ps to
e.g. script.Rout.ps so that later I can easily identify

Generating R plots via Ruby CGI
Greetings,
I'm trying to debug a simple two-line plot routine in R called test.R:
cor(swiss)
plot(swiss$Catholic, swiss$Examination)
These commands work fine when typed into R. They also work fine when
I invoke this routine by the following line into my terminal:
R --slave < /Library/WebServer/Documents/gsa/test.R
My ultimate goal is to send data to this R routine via a web

Xvfb and R
Hi
I have recently installed and implemented Xvfb (X virtual frame buffer) so that I can create jpegs using R over CGI (SUSE Linux 8.1 and Apache 1.3).
I have noticed that in order to do this, a file (Rplots.ps) is created in my cgi-bin directory everytime a cgi script is run. This could cause problems though as I have a multi-user system where it is possible that two different users will run

name of the graphics output
Hello.
In the file list.txt, I have the name of n files in data frame format. I
want to make an image for each file and save the images in pdf format.
To do this, I do the following:
llista = scan(file="list.txt",what=list(nom=""))
for (file.name in llista[[1]]){
aux=read.table(file=file.name)
aux=as.matrix(aux)

Can I set default parameters for the default graphics device?
I'm completely new to R, and I'd like to do something like this:
> x=c(1,2,3)
> plot(x,x)
At this point, R creates a file "Rplots.pdf", since the default device is
PDF and the default filename is "Rplots.pdf". I know I can set the default
device like this:
> options(device="png")
But is there a way to set the default device's

how many quad T1 cards
Jerry, back in August you were thinking about putting 4 T1 cards in a
single box--did you end up doing that and how did it work out? We're
looking at 700-800 lines for an app and are trying to figure out how
many machines we'll need.
Has anyone else done more than 2 quad T1 cards?

several odfWeave questions
[Sending both to the maintainer and to R-help, in case anyone else has
answers ...]
I've looked in odfWeave documentation, vignette, and poked around on
the web some, and haven't found answers yet.
1a. am I right in believing that odfWeave does not respect the
'keep.source' option? Am I missing something obvious?
1b. is there a way to set global options analogous to

quartz() on MAC OSX
I am (desperately) trying to get used to using a Mac here at my new
location. (Why *anyone* would ever use anything other than Linux, except
under duress as I am, totally escapes me, but that's another story.)
Fortunately much of the Mac OSX is actually Unix, so a civilized person can
manage to carry on ... But there are some things. (Like this <expletive

trellis.par.get without opening a device?
I am using the Deepayan's Sweave trick to set graphics parameters for all
graphs:
ltheme = canonical.theme(color=TRUE)
sup = trellis.par.get("superpose.line")
ltheme$superpose.line$col = c('black',"red","blue","#e31111","green",
"gray")
....
Works perfectly, there is only a minor nuissance that trellis.par.get opens

Plots default to Rplots.ps
Dear All,
Hello I'm a newbie to the list. I recently installed R on a Redhat 9.0
system, when I come to plot anything it does not bring up a graphics
window but rather stores it in a file "Rplots.ps". I tried x11() but
that doesn't bring up a window either. I would greatly appreciate any
advice.

tyring to save plots using windoze 7 and cygwin
Hi,
I'd been using R in the past and recently installed it on a new windoze 7 machine.
There have been many issues with compatibility and 32/64 bit apps etc and I did
find on google on isolated complaint that saveplot failed in scripts a long time ago.
R seems to work fine except script-based plot saving as pdf has not worked.
I have tried the following, none of which seem to function,

How to infer default width and height for a device?
Hi.
GENERAL:
Is there a general method for inferring default device settings,
particularly 'width' and 'height', that works for all devices? AFAIK,
the answer is no, but there might be functions out there that I don't
know of.
POSTSCRIPT SPECIFIC:
If not, I'm considering implementing such a method myself. Is it
possible for R to infer the default 'width' and

Usage questions
Can I ask a couple of usage questions? (RedHat Linux 6.1, R-1.1)
1. This may just indicate I'm a dinosaur who can't leave SAS behind. I
want to write programs and run them with source() to see what they do,
then I would like to use the "up arrow" to go back through the commands
that were in the file, fiddle them, see what they do, and so forth. Is
there no way? SAS has a

problem building dvi and pdf documentation on Darwin 10.2.6
I just installed R-1.7.0 on Darwin 6.6 (a.k.a. MacOS 10.2.6).
'make' and 'make check' run without any problems. 'make info'
builds with no complaints, but 'make dvi' and 'make pdf' fail.
I get refman.dvi and refman.pdf OK (with some warnings from

postscript device on R-1.1.0
Am I the only one with this problem?

Error in old$command == "default" : comparison (1) is possible only for

The function postscript() is creates a list called "old". the function
wants to access old$command, but old does not have a component called
