Viewing GeoTIFFs

I haven't found a package to view GeoTiff imagery in R. Does anyone know of one that may work? The GeoTIFF is not compatible with most TIFF viewing software, the headers are different. GRASS can view them, but I'd rather not run GRASS every time I need to check my code output.
Which platform are you using? If you can install rgdal, I think you will find that it reads GeoTIFFs nicely. You can either read larger images "by hand" using the GDAL interface more directly, or use readGDAL() as a wrapper returning a SpatialGridDataFrame object directly. Roger
Thanks, Jason Dalton
