In BATCH mode it does not make much sense to display plots on the
screen because the script may be running on a system without screen
(cluster). So R uses a different default device. On my LINUX
system it's pdf, so all my plots go to Rplots.pdf unless I explicitly
send them somewhere else. I don't know about the defaults on Macs but
you should be able to find the file in the current directory easily.
