Only framework builds of python can plot to a quartz device, do things
like MacPorts and Fink can't do it.  However, everything else can
(Apple's python, Enthought, ActiveState)

By default matplotlib, ReInteract, as well as R itself, plot to a
Quartz device.  So it seems like it shouldn't be too hard.  I was just
wondering if anyone has been able to do it, or if not, had any ideas
for doing it.  Just guessing, but I'd think the easiest way to plot to
quartz via rpy2 would be telling R.app itself to display the plots,
but I have no idea how to go about doing that.
