Repeat Question : Please see this previous StackOverflow question on creating a series of plots in R which offers a number of solutions including pointers to other useful packages such as the animation package.
Also be sure to check out the animation package
I'd recommend just generating a series of png files (which happens by default each time you run plot
with the png
device open). You can then combine them into an animated gif with another program such as ImageMagick.
Here is sample code of using Imagemagick (called through R) for any sequence of png's you generate.
