Try this (contents of plot.R):

png("mygraphic.png")
plot(1:10)
dev.off()
browseURL("mygraphic.png")

It will pop up the graphic in a browser window.

On a Mac that shows up in a Preview window. The X11() device does open a plot on a Mac when this file is submitted:

x=1:10
y=1:10
X11()
plot(x,y)
dev.off()

I was under the impression that no surrounding box was displayed since the points were visible for several seconds before the window disappeared. But testing from a GUI session, I see that the X11 device takes a long time to draw the axes, which has a side-effect in the Rscript session of displaying the points for several seconds and the axes for only milliseconds.

Hi,

I am wondering how to pop up the graphics window from Rscript. I run
the following code, but I don't see the graphics window, even
transiently.

Regards,
Peng

$ Rscript plot.R
x=1:10
y=1:10
plot(x,y)
