How to access Rapidminer repository from the R console?

Question

Basic problem: I am not happy with the Rapidminer plots (for example, there seems to be a lack of line plots). My proposed solution is using the R extension for plotting.

But how do I access Rapidminer repository data from the Rapidminer R console?

Bonus if you can provide a link to documentation for the plugin (Who decided to call this thing R? ;-) )

It's called R because that's the first letter of the names of the two guys who initially wrote it. Send my bonus to my bank account — Rich Scriven, Jan 29 '15 at 22:31

The R variable view lets you load RapidMiner repository data into R as data frames. Proceed as normal with R commands in the R console view and obtain plots in the R plot view.

Tip: Type the command x11() into the R console to get a new graphics window. This can be moved outside the RapidMiner GUI.
