R users,
OK, so I feel dumb. I didn't understand that dev.off() turns off the process of writing a file, and that I can't open a file until dev.off() is called to complete the file.
Thanks to everyone who responded to my call for help.
I'm really liking what I'm learning about R. I hope to learn enough to teach my colleagues and students about it.

Since it was only yesterday, perhaps you can think over what you did between then and now that might have affected things.
R is very stable; it is very unlikely that R has changed. Hence, either something outside R changed that affects R's postscript output -- also unlikely -- or you are doing something different in what you are telling R to do. Since you didn't provide examples that fail, we can only guess...
Are you giving exactly the same commands today on exactly the same data?
Are you remembering to use dev.off() after the graphics commands are complete?

I am new to R, using version 2.0.1 on a Macintosh running OS X 10.3. I am learning how to export graphics to postscript format using the postscript() function, but R is only writing empty files.
Yesterday, postscript() was working for me. Today, I don't know what's wrong. Can somebody suggest some things that might fix this problem?
Thanks in advance for you help.
