[R] Fixing the size of R's Graphic Device

[Christofer Bogaso]

I really dont know what could be the right value. So I am trying to
get the right value based on trial and error.

All I want is that the graphic windows' height should occupy the
height of my screen and width should be ~70% of width of my scream

I am using Mac desktop (21.5 inch 2017 model) but running Windows.
