[R] How to run R to generate graphics (jpeg) files dynamically ?

[ripley@stats.ox.ac.uk]

Please read the rw-FAQ Q2.9.  You want to use rterm --no-save < input.R
and to open a jpeg() device in input.R.  You cannot use Rgui.

The answer here depends on the platform in use: you are using Windows, and
neglected to tell us.

There's a whole R manual on that: see the Help menu in Rgui.
