The problem is that I don't usually invoke figure(), I just do plot(x,y), which will presumably call figure for me. So unless there's some kind of event that's run after figure is called, I can't have a generic way of adding my bindings. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get your Android app more play: Bring it to the BlackBerry PlayBook in minutes.
