I agree: It sounds like a bug, as you said, Irk, in that
Rgui.exe cannot copy a metafile to the clipboard, at least under MS
Windows 2000, 5.00.2195, Service Pack 3, even though Rterm.exe can.
Therefore, I'm including "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" in the list of addresses
to this email.

Using R 1.9.1 alpha via XEmacs with ESS under Windows 2000, I did

pasted fine.
Ok.
When I started R 1.9.1 alpha directly (without XEmacs) and tried
the same thing, I got a standard lattice plot. However, when I tried
File -> Copy to the clipboard -> as a metafile, I got a blank plot when
copying into MS Word. When I copied as a bitmap, it came through fine.
However, I suspect that is unacceptable.
Not ok.
But isn't it a bug in the windows version of R if the Rgui.exe cannot copy
to the clipboard where Rterm.exe can?
I may be missing some subtle detail, though...
