Hello,
After I plot something how do I reactivate the console (and not the plot
window) so I don't have to click on the console each time to go to the next
command?
Example that does not work:
fun = function(x){ plot(x); dev.set(dev.prev())}
fun(1:4)
...and another that does not work:
fun = function(x){ plot(x); dev.set(NULL)}
fun(1:4)
Again, by 'not work' I mean I can't seem to give control back to the
console after I plot. I didn't find anything online.
thanks,
Ben

??console ## This you SHOULD have tried yourself! ?loadRconsole ?windows It looks to me like you would use e.g. windows() to position and size the graphics display and then would write a temp file and load it with loadRconsole() to reposition the Gui window as desired. a) This sounds clumsy b) Probably better (but more difficult?) ways to do it with TCL/TK So I would hope Duncan M. or someone else more knowledgeable about the ways of Windows and windows would chime in with better alternatives. -- Bert

Perfect, thanks! Naturally, now I need to resize the console so it doesn't
cover my new plots. I'd like to resize it on the fly (from within the
function) then reset the size to its previous size.
So, curConsoleDims() and resize.console() are a made up functions, but they
demonstrate what I am trying to do:
fun = function(x){
? plot(x)
? bringToTop(-1)??? #bring console to top (activate console or give console
control) thanks Bert!
? dims = curConsoleDims()
? on.exit(dims)
? resize.console(width=100,height=100)
}
fun(1:4)
Thanks!
