### Description
This is an R package to convert R graphics to Flash file (SWF format).
The conversion can be done in two different ways:
1. This package contains a SWF device in R, so you can create SWF file
directly using plotting functions like `plot()` and `lines()`.
The convention is that every time you call a high-level plotting function,
e.g. `plot()`, the movie will create a new frame and draw the following
shapes in this frame. In this way, you can create some animation by
calling a series of `plot()` functions.
2. This package also includes several functions to convert graphics of
other formats into SWF format. For example, `svg2swf()` to convert from
SVG to SWF, and `image2swf()` to convert PNG and JPG images into a single
SWF file.
### Install
**R2SWF** depends on the following libraries:
- zlib [http://www.zlib.net/](http://www.zlib.net/)
- libpng [http://www.libpng.org/](http://www.libpng.org/)
- freetype [http://www.freetype.org/](http://www.freetype.org/)
- libming [http://www.libming.org/](http://www.libming.org/)
However, the source code of the dependent libraries (with minor modifications) are included in the package, so you don't need to install them by yourself.
To install the package here:
```r
