Maybe some of the source() options will work.
Suppose you have the following in an R file:
#### junk.R ####
1:5
x = 1:10
library(ggplot2)
data(VADeaths)
pl <- ggplot(melt(VADeaths),aes(value, X1))+ geom_point() +
facet_wrap(~X2)+ylab("")
pl
Then from the command line:
> source("junk.R")
## No output
> source("junk.R, print.eval = TRUE)
[1] 1 2 3 4 5
and a window displays a graph.
Not sure if this will work with the HTML stuff (don't know the first thing
about the package), but it seems like a start.
Hope this helps,
