[R] tiff()-bug (was re:Preparing high quality figures with, tiff as end result)

[Paulo Barata]

To the R colleagues,

I do not have any problems when running this code, everything
works well:

tiff()
plot(1:1000)
dev.off()

I am using R 2.7.1 and Windows XP Professional (service pack 2).

Regards,

Paulo Barata

Hi all,

A while back I sent a message concerning working with tiff-files, and
mentioned that I encountered a bug in 2.7.0.
This bug still occurs in 2.7.1, and is reproducable on a separate
computer (both running WinXP professional):

tiff()
plot(1:1000)
dev.off()

This causes R to show the window "R GUI has encountered a problem and
needs to close".
Can anyone else out there reproduce this, so I can file a bug report?

Best,

Gustaf Rydevik
