Dear R users,

I write some code which produce a graphic
Now I try at the end to output it (bitmap or jpeg) like this way :

- pop up window asking me to choose a path where to save my picture 
- choose name for this picture

thanks you in advance,

Adel

Your message isn't very clear, so forgive me if I have misunderstood, but
1. You can save your pictures in the manner you described by clicking on the
File menu in a graphics window, then 'Save As...', and choose bitmap or
jpeg.

2. If you want to save plots automatically, then do it in code:
jpeg("foo.jpg")
plot(1:100)
dev.off()

I am wondering if:

jpeg(file=file.choose())   # ...accomplish mysimbaa's goals.

(There have been several messages in recent weeks that suggest PNG is a 
better format for lossless image storage of line and point graphics.)
