In Windows you can record all plots by using the record=TRUE option
when you open the graphics display, or from the menu on the display
window.  You cycle back through the history by hitting the PgUp key.  

You're using X11, so you might need to save your plots explicitly
using recordPlot() and then use replayPlot() to see it again (but your
front-end might provide access to them more easily, the way Windows
does).
