Hi,

There was a recent thread on r-sig-debian:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.debian/1264

concerning, "Graphics history" in unix: to have a history of plots.
>From my recollection, S+ had (and may be, has) a paginated graphics
output. Looking at Deepayan's reply:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.debian/1268

i think it might be "easy" to implement the history part (paginated
device may be more difficult) for our graphics device.

The idea would be to store the plotting calls into a list
(.rk.something) and with two top level menu entries ('<' and '>') on
the graphics window we could flip through the list...

Is it at all easy to implement, or am I hallucinating?

Regards,
