Hi,

I know R is not made for this, but I still wanted to ask if there are 
possibilities to do this;


I repeatedly collect data from a database for a given time interval.
Now I would like to monitor the change of this data with some nice plots.

I actually have to draw 15 plots to get the whole picture.
Now I can write a loop that, for a given time interval, updates the data and 
plots them using one quartz window that is split into subparts with the layout 
function.

However, since I redraw every plot every time, the drawing takes some time and 
it is not an "instant update" that I see.
The plots are slowly redrawn from the upper left corner of the quartz window to 
the bottom right.


That makes me wonder;
Is there a way to buffer the graphical device before updating it?
Or are there any other solutions for R that enables to smoothly plot / 
visualize data in 'real-time'?


I am grateful for any suggestions!
