[R-SIG-Mac] Using quartz-device from Emacs+ess

[Julin Maloof]

I am not sure if you are "out of luck".  Do you need to use a quartz device per se?  I use xemacs + ess in X11 and use the X11() device for graphics, and pdf() or jpeg() for saving images.  I am not sure why the later aren't working for you, however.
