Plotting w/o X
This might be interesting for non-X fans like me. I just found a nice way to plot to a simple terminal.
Using gnuplot you can enable terminal plots via set term dumb . Here is an example:
gnuplot> set term dumb
Terminal type set to 'dumb'
Options are 'feed size 79, 24'
gnuplot> plot [0:6.3] sin(x)
1 ++---------+--*******-+---------+----------+----------+----------+-++
+ *** *** + + sin(x) ****** |
0.8 ++ * *** ++
| ** ** |
0.6 ++ ** * ++
| * ** |
0.4 ++ * * ++
| * ** |
0.2 +** * ++
0 ** ** +*
| ** *|
-0.2 ++ * **+
| ** * |
-0.4 ++ * ** ++
| ** * |
-0.6 ++ * *** ++
| ** ** |
-0.8 ++ *** * ++
+ + + + + *** +*** + |

If anybody has an idea how to do it with R please tell me!
