Thank you for the explanation and your patience in answering me this obviously very simple question!! Originally I tried to store plots directly in a list. So writing them directly to disc was just a good alternative. I knew that that jpeg() provides functionality for that, but didn't use it correctly. Hence, is it also possible to store a plot in a list, somehow?
