Creating gif files using R

Greetings,
I am a new user of R but a long time fan of S (Splus) and have
installed R version 0.65.1 on a
Windows NT machine. I would like to save plots as gif files and have
been using savePlot()
with some success. I found that savePlot would not work without
modification, namely
decrementing the device by 1 before calling the internal routine that
does the conversion. Once
that change was made it worked as advertised. I am wondering now whether
I could generate
the gif files in a batch job. I am wanting to do a web-based analysis
that includes a call to
R which would return a gif file for display in a browser. Is this
possible directly with R?
savePlot + Rterm should do the work. However, we will probably withdraw support to direct generation of gif to avoid some legal problems. Hence, give a try also to 'dev2bitmap' (which however require ghostscript installed). guido -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-devel mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
