[R] exporting plots

[Roger Peng]

Try running

> postscript("myfile.ps")

This will create a postscript file.  Depending on your capabilities, you
may also be able to create jpeg's, png's or pdf's.  You can check this
with

> capabilities()

Another useful function you may want to look up is dev.off(), which can be
used /after/ a plot has been constructed.
