svglite with multiple files
Sigh... Per the posting guide (which you have read, right?): "For questions about functions in standard packages distributed with R (see the FAQ Add-on packages in R <http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#Add-on-packages-in-R>), ask questions on R-help.If the question relates to a *contributed package* , e.g., one downloaded from CRAN, try contacting the package maintainer first. You can also use find("functionname") and packageDescription("packagename") to find this information. *Only* send such questions to R-help or R-devel if you get no reply or need further assistance. This applies to both requests for help and to bug reports. " This certainly sounds like a question for the svglite maintainer, ?maintainer, who might know about "tricks" that one could use. Though you might get lucky here -- it's just that you should not expect to. If you tried to contact the maintainer but received no response, do include that info in your post.

Dear All,
while svg() (package grDevices) can produce several files, svglite()
(package svglite) is limited to one file/page only (as documented in the
respective help page).
Is there a simple solution to make svglite() work like svg() to produce
several files?
Of course one could call svglite() before dev.off() after every plot.
best regards,
Heinz
## example
svg("Rplot%03d.svg")
plot(1)
plot(2)
plot(3)
dev.off()
## three files Rplot001.svg, Rplot002.svg, Rplot003.svg are produced
library(svglite)
svglite("Rplot-lite.svg")
plot(1)
plot(2) ## as documented: Error in plot.new() : svglite only supports
one page
