Hello all,

I've been working on a new R Graphics device that targets Adobe's Shockwave Flash format (SWF for short). It uses http://www.libming.org/ on the backend. Here are some example outputs so far:

http://160.129.129.41/~hornerj/plots/

Once you click on the above, choose a directory like 'smooth' and then click on test.html to see a side-by-side comparison of the swf file with the png equivalent. Fonts aren't working yet (but they will), and libming doesn't support dashed lines either, so there are some areas upon which to improve.

My goal is to support limited interactivity in the form of popup labels for key data points. Maybe someone has some other ideas?

Also, there's a fascinating new project that aims to create interactive graphics within the HTML canvas tag using the Processing.js javascript library. It's quite eye-opening:

I believe an R graphics device could target javascript as well!

Thoughts?
