Subject: Display execution in a function

Dear all,

Here is a simplified version of a function I made:

############

plotfunc<-function(x){
#x a vector
cat("please select two points","\n")
plot(x)
points<-locator(2)
return(points)
}

############

Using R version 1.01 for mac os x (aqua GUI)

I would like to know what should I do to make 
sure that my text line will be printed prior to 
the drawing of the plot.
I hope you will agree with me that it is not 
useful to have the plot displayed and R waiting 
for user input while nothing has yet been 
displayed for instructions!

Thanks a lot

PS.:  I have tried this on both a R version 1.01 
and 1.00 and on a G5 dual processor as well as on 
a powerbook G4
