[R] save single image when using plot(lm(y~x))

[Schreiber, Stefan]

Thanks Paul!!

I wasn't aware of the command "plot.lm". Therefore, I couldn't find the
help-file either. 

Cheers,
Stefan

Hi,

The plot function in R is a so called generic function, an appropriate 
function is chosen based on the input object provided by the user. In 
this case an lm-object (use the class() command to find this). The plot 
function that R calls is then called plot.lm. ?plot.lm gives you the 
help file and the first sentence in the help file already answers your 
problem.

hope this helps,
Paul
