About 2 years ago, Tobias Verbeke asked:
"I am looking for a way to capture the binary string that in normal use of
graphics devices will bewritten to (most commonly) a file connection... Is there a
way of capturing the binary `jpeg string'
[generated by jpeg()]?"
http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e2/devel/07/09/4276.html
Brian Ripley's answer was "Nope, unfortunately, they write to files not connections and no R object
is involved."
Is this still the case?
Yes (assuming your question wasn't a rhetorical question).
I still think it would be a useful feature if graphics devices
could write to connections.
Best,
Tobias
P.S. Your question seems more appropriate for R-devel.
