Probably not in there: It was easier to implement that way, because I
need to cellect all output from the figure chunks, too. The real
problem is that you cannot dev.copy() from a non-interactive device,
so the code has to be rerun for each graphics format. One could spare
one run, but then the code gets messiert (and obviously nobody
bothered so far to do it).

Best,
Fritz
