[R] Graphic Device - View/get all graphics

[Sarah Goslee]

I'm not entirely sure I understand the problem, but one possible solution
would be to use some device like postscript that saves the graphics to a
file. (Or some other device appropriate for your intended use and OS.)

You could still save the data to a list if you wanted - just make it part
of what your function returns.
