TODOs:
- More tolerant handshake on Windows? Simply a matter of allowing more time?
+- A default preview() function is available to plugins, reducing the code needed to add preview functionaality
- Better placement of messages in non-plot preview windows
- Fixed some problems with cancelling running commands
- Package installation uses inline widget to provide progress feedback, instead of separate dialogs

- Adjusting the JS template is a little more work. You will have to create a new function called <function>preview()</function> in addition to the <function>preprocess()</function>, <function>calculate()</function>, &etc; functions. This function should generate the code needed to produce the plot, and only that. Esp. no printing of headers, <function>rk.graphics.on()</function>, or similar calls. See the <link linkend="plot_plugin_example">example</link>, below for the typical pattern that you will use.
+ Adjusting the JS template is only a little more work, here you will have to make sure, only the plot itself is generated, and shown in an onscreen-device, rather than directed to the output. I.e. no printing of headers, <function>rk.graphics.on()</function>, or similar calls. To assist you in this, &rkward; will call the <function>preprocess()</function>, <function>calculate()</function>, and <function>printout()</function> functions with an additional parameter that is set to <parameter>true</parameter>, when generating code for a preview. (The parameter is omitted when generating the final code. In javascript this will evaluate to <parameter>false</parameter> when used inside an <function>if</function>-statement.) See the <link linkend="plot_plugin_example">example</link>, below for the typical pattern that you will use.

+ Alternatively, should you need more control than this, you can instead add a new function called <function>preview()</function> to your JS template, and generate the code required for a preview, there (probably, at least in part, again by calling <function>calculate()</function>, etc.).
