Copying from graphics window in OS X
I hope there is a way...at the moment an os X screen grab is the only way to get a quick copy. When I ran Cygwin on a PC, copying from graphic windows was as easy as ctrl+c--so it doesn't sound like an X11 limitation. I'd like to know what Cygwin was doing in the background...

I'm running R from an Xterm window is OSX-Tiger. Graphical windows appear as they should, but I'm having trouble copying from them--using cmd+c or the Copy option in the Edit menu won't place the graph in the clipboard (when I paste into a running OS X app, I get whatever was the last copied thing from a non-x11 window). Any ideas on how to copy from a xterm-launched graphical window? I can copy/paste into and out of the xterm command line, but I can't get anything from a graphical window.
I don't think it is possible, but I would love to be corrected. You can simple make a png, pdf, etc. if you want to save the graphic. Sean
