Initial Comment:
I really like rkward, but the quality of the graphs it produces is not as good as it could be. There is a R cairo package[1] available that produces high quality graphs. It supports alpha channels and anti-aliasing. It can output to the display, bitmap graphics and vector graphics. It would be nice if rkward used this to produce
graphs, and also have an option to save graphs as svg vector files. Would this be possible?

Message:
Since R 2.7.0, R uses cairo by default, also for x11(), on systems that
support cairo. RKWard simply gets this new default, without further
actions.

Therefore this report is now obsolete.
