Re: [R] saving multiple panes to PNG
Thank you everyone who contacted me so quickly!
I am posting the solution here, so that it is in the archive:
> plot(x.irf , plot.type="multiple" , names="p.ret")
> plot(x.irf , plot.type="multiple" , names="n.ret")
The returns() function in is the timeSeries package. However, one can
replace the "na.omit(returns(x[,2]))" bits below with any two vectors
of data.

"Hit to see next plot:"
When one hits , the next pair of IRF graphs appears in Quartz.

I am able to save only one of the plots. How does one tell plot()
to plot first one of the panes and then the second?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [R] saving multiple panes to PNG
I cannot run your example because I cannot identify which package the
function returns is from.
Nonetheless, something like par(mfrow=c(2,3)) should do the trick.

Re: [R] saving multiple panes to PNG
Do you want the stuff to appear on one page? Have you tried opening a
device with multiple plots? For example via:
par(mfrow=c(2,2))
or:
layout(matrix(1:4,2,2))
Other than that the documentation for the "vars" package gives you
details for a plot function that may be used for plotting your irf
objects. There is an argument (plot.type) that can be set to plot
multiple plots on one page.
