[R-gui] tcltk: "Image" rather than bitmap loaded on tklabel

[Dirk Eddelbuettel]

Hi all,

How can I display images from external files in tcltk?

In Perl/Tk, I can use the Tk::Photo widget to load a .png graphic file,
which then goes into a label or button widget. In R, I only managed to do
that with a bitmap which I converted from a .png file. 

Is there a simple way without having to re-code pieces of, say, tkrplot?

Thanks, Dirk
