This can be done fairly simply using the tkexamp function from the TeachingDemos package.
Here are some examples: library(TeachingDemos) histfunc <- function(n, mu=0, sigma=1) { x <- rnorm(n, mu, sigma) hist(x) } hist.list1 <- list( n=list('slider', from=10, to=10000, resolution=10), mu=list('numentry', init=0), sigma=list('numentry', init=1) ) tkexamp( histfunc, hist.list1 ) ### maybe better hist.list2 <- list( n=list('spinbox', values=c(10,50,100,500,1000,5000,10000), init=10, from=10, to=10000)) tkexamp( histfunc, hist.list2 ) # another variation x <- rnorm(10000) histfunc2 <- function(n) { hist(x[seq_len(n)]) } tkexamp( histfunc2, list( n=list('slider', from=10, to=10000, resolution=10) ) ) You may want to set some of the other arguments as well.
