Hi Berend,

thanks for pointing out the problem. I've just fixed it. I went another way to enforce the reloading.

rndn = Time.now.to_i # random number needed to enforce reloading of cached images

print "<img width=#{width} onclick=\"TextMate.system(\'open \\'#{f}\\'\',null);\" src='file://#{f}?#{rndn}' />"


This approach avoids the generating of lots of files while having a R session.


Cheers,
