If one was to implement a Tikz output for R graphics, I'm not sure
what route to take:
1) focus exclusively on Grid graphics and implement a conversion at
the R level à la gridSVG (see Paul Murrell's webpage)
2) create a new device ( I have no idea where to find guidelines for
this, and I'm not even clear on what exactly a "Device" is).
In any case, given that pdf is often the preferred output for R
graphics (e.g. through the Sweave route), it seems that the pgf format
would be an excellent addition if only for its perfect handling of
LaTeX formulas.
Best wishes,
baptiste

I think the pgfSweave project on R-forge is working on this (as
far as
i know it currently relies on eps2pgf)
Right, but eps2pgf fails me on more complex / stacked plots.
Otherwise,
I would be content using eps2pgf.
Same for me; pgf/tikz is my method of choice for graphics in latex
because it gets around the eps-detour that can cause strange problems.
