Many thanks Duncan. Perhaps this merits a more explicit note in the documentation?
The quote I gave is from the documentation. How could it be more explicit?
This is unfortunately typical of the attitude of R-core people toward the documentation. ``It's clear.'' they say. ``It's explicit.'' Clear and explicit once you *know* what it's saying. Not before, but.
I think this unfairly blames R-core for being human.
Why is this unfair? R-core is supposed to be superhuman! :-)
cheers,
Rolf
