first, please note that the CSS-file we provide is minimal, and does not 
specify the size of captions or the spacing around them, at all. So what you 
are seeing is the default styles for your system. Frankly, though, I don't 
have any idea, where these can be configured (anybody?).

For this reason, it is also hard to tell, where exactly the spacing comes 
from. Try adding:

h1 {
    font-size: 2em;
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    line-height: 80%;
}

Experiment with that. For level 2 headings write "h2", instead of "h1", and so 
on. For regular text write "body".

I'm afraid, I still don't understand. Do you want separate windows per graph? 
Add an 
  x11()
before each plot, then. Or you don't see them in the history ("Previous plot", 
"Next plot")? Works for me. Try this (non-sensical) example:

  library (ggplots2)

  if (!exists ("i")) i <- 0
  i <- i + 100

  a <- ggplot(mtcars + i, aes(factor(cyl)))
  b <- a + geom_bar()

  b
  dev.copy (device=rk.graph.on)
  rk.graph.off()

Copy this to a script window, and use Run->Run all, repeatedly. Here, this 
yields one plot window, with a history of plots. Does it fail to work for you?

Regards
Thomas
