I'm a complete newbie to R, and none of the introductions I've seen cover how to use R when all you've got is the command line and no windowing system. My data's on a server, and I'm working with it via ssh. In gnuplot, you can set your 'display' to be a PNG file on disk. How do I plot something to a file on disk from R? R-2.9.1 on CentOS, if it matters. Thanks!
(Sorry if this is unusually basic, but I have the worst time Googling for quick answers with R. Cute name, impossible to search for.)

Keep in mind that
postscrpt() , pdf() , png() , and jpeg() have specific function parameters which can be used to customize the output.
For example:
check
?postscript for more information on the parameters that can be utilized.

Secondly, keep in mind that all commands that you want to be included in your saved plot should be executed prior to
dev.off()
For example:

Hope that helps.

Just to expand on Gnoupi answer, you also need to close the connection to the device with
dev.off if you want the plot to be written to file.
For instance

Epson resetter software free download. From their documentation, it seems you have to use device drivers:
R can generate graphics (of varying levels of quality) on almost any type of display or printing device. Before this can begin, however, R needs to be informed what type of device it is dealing with. This is done by starting a device driver. The purpose of a device driver is to convert graphical instructions from R (“draw a line,” for example) into a form that the particular device can understand.

If your connection to the server is fast enough, you could try X11 forwarding through your ssh connection - basically the server will plot to a window on your local screen, quite useful!

Did your computer fail to open a PLT file? We explain what PLT files are and recommend software that we know can open or convert your PLT files.
What is a PLT file?
The .plt file extension is most commonly associated with the Autodesk AutoCAD software application. The PLT files that are used by this software contain vector graphic plotter files that have been created by the applications.
Other applications also use the .plt extension for plotter files, such as the HP Graphics Language and OziExplorer software applications. PLT files can be printed using a plotter. A plotter draws images using lines instead of printing dots like a normal printer. The .plt file extension is also used by Bentley's CAD MicroStation application. This application uses the .plt file suffix for plot driver configuration files. Software that will open, convert or fix PLT filesTry a universal file viewerOpen Plt File In Matlab
In addition to the products listed above, I would suggest that you try a universal file viewer like Free File Viewer. It can open over 200 different types of files - and very likely yours too! Download Free File Viewer.
