Normally the workflow is:
png("heatmap.png") # don't forget the second quote, as you did below
my.plot.code # whatever you need to draw the heatmap
dev.off() # people often forget this step - did you?
You'll probably want to adjust the size and resolution settings for
png() to get the desired high-resolution output; see ?png for details.
