[R] checking postscript graphics

Most of the x11() graphics problems I was having in a development
version of  R 0.90.0 seem to have disappeared in the release version.
While thinking about that problem, I realized it would be good for me to
have a better way to check the postscript versions of  the graphics
produced by my package tests. I would like to be able to simply view
about 100 pages of postscript graphics. They could be viewed on the fly
(as R creates them) or saved, as multiple files or a single file,  then
checked with something like ghostview. However, any of these will
require a certain amount of re-programming effort and I am not sure of
the relative merits of the different approaches. If anyone has done
something like this or has good suggestions I would appreciate advice.
(I would prefer a solution that works in both Linux and Solaris.)
