Hello R friends I am quite impressed by the power of R, I am using it only since some weeks now. But its visualizing capabilities are outstanding! But one thing I couldn't solve: I have programs producing lots of data, most times 3D. In R I am using the library rgl to visualize nicely the 3D data. What I would like to do is to write R scipts which read in a data file and show me the 3D rgl plot. So that on the command line I just call my newly written R script, which pops up the rgl window. This session should run until I close the rgl window or press a button or something like this. Currently, I can write R scripts - using Rscript or - http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/04/05/0500.html But both approaches contain the problem that the rgl window pops up for just a moment, and then the program terminates. Does any body has an idea, what to do? Help would be very appreciated. Thank's a lot and ...

R script to start session (without automatically finishing)

So you have to write a script that will not terminate until you 'press a button or something like this'. That's easy to do, but as you haven't told us your OS. E.g. on Windows, call winDialogString at the end.
