\section{WARNING}{
  The format of recorded plots may change between \R versions.
  Recorded plots should \strong{not} be used as a permanent
  storage format for \R plots.

  \R will always attempt to replay a recorded plot, but if the plot was 
  recorded with a different \R version then bad things may happen.
}
