I am uncertain about how to acknowledge the fact that $ can do partial matching in the space of about 30 characters. One option is this: x[["name"]] column named "name" x$name same as above (almost always)
How about "as above (with partial matching)"? If it is still too long, "with" could be abbreviated, "matching" could be match: "as above (w. partial match)" Duncan Murdoch
Is that better or worse than ignoring this issue, or is there an even better phrasing? As per the other suggestions, I fixed the matrices indexing info, pkg::foo() now has "not usually required"; and <<- now is explained as "Left assignment in outer lexical scope; not for beginners" Plus, I've been able to get in touch with Tom Short. :-) Thanks to Jeff Newmiller,Dennis Murphy, and Peter Dalgaard for these helpful suggestions and corrections! regards, m@
