a question on plot(), workspace or method dispatch, NOT about: Re: [R] RWinEdt, other text editors and R2.01 a problem in pasting commands

Dear All, In the last few days I started using the last version of R as I encountered a problem with R1.9 and the use of RWinEdt, however the problem shows with R2.01 as well. More precisely 1. I install R2.01 after removing old verions of R 2. I Install RWinEdt package versione RWinEdt_1.6-2 and SWinRegistry_0.3-2 and everything seems fine 3. I recall the RWinEdt library (library(RWinEdt)) and WinEdt appears 4. now after loading a workspace I run the following command using the paste icon in WinEdt: plot(x,xaxt="n",xlab="time", ylab=expression(alpha),main=nome,type="l") And I get the following error message: <<Error in stripchart(x, ...) : unused argument(s) (xaxt ...)>>
From now on the plot command stops working, it doesn't recognize any
option not even type="l" or type="b" or anything.
If I type the intrusction directly on the command window without any
previous paste operation from WinEdt the command works properly.
Furthermore if I try to paste commands by simply coping it from a text
file and pasting it on the R command window I have the same problem. I
even tried:
source("prova.txt") containing the same command line and I got the same
error:
Error in stripchart(x, ...) : unused argument(s) (xaxt ...)
I'm not very good at using Windows XP, can anyone help?
Thanks

Please don't complain about R-WinEdt, WinEdt, other editors, or Windows if the point is obviously somewhere else! 1. Have you redefined plot() in your workspace? 2. What kind of object is x (in particular it's class, please!)? Uwe Ligges
