 Compilation / technical
 	- Incorporate FreeBSD patches http://www.freshports.org/math/rkward/files.php?message_id=200609172111.k8HLBiob081349@repoman.freebsd.org
 
 UI-stuff
+	- Access to dev.copy (), dev.print (), and a function to copy gaphics to rkward output
+		- probably in Windows-menu for now
 	"First-run wizard"
 		- pre-install R packages
+	- Check for existence of php binary on startup, not only when loading a plugin

 	- in REmbedInternal, add extractTemporaryStrings (), for strings that do not have to be copied
 	- Object editing / modification tracking:
 		- functions to set double/int/string-vectors directly. Use in paste-operations
-	- check whether we're running in a PTY, and warn otherwise. Currently the R backend needs this.
 	- on exit, check whether there are still RCommands left in the backend and wait/request user-interaction before tearing down the thread. After all, the last command might have been a "save"!
 		- How about always doing exiting via a "q ()" command in the backend, instead? That way we could always be sure, all previous commands have been completed before the q ()!
