peering inside functions in a package?

Let's say I would like to look inside the function corBrownian in library (ape). When I type in the function name I get the following, which is not nearly the detail that goes into this function. I am wondering how to begin cracking this function open (and others) so I can learn more about it and perhaps code my own corClass one day. Thanks.
corBrownian
function (value = 1, phy, form = ~1)
{
if (!inherits(phy, "phylo"))
stop("object \"phy\" is not of class \"phylo\"")
attr(value, "formula") <- form
attr(value, "fixed") <- TRUE
attr(value, "tree") <- phy
class(value) <- c("corBrownian", "corPhyl", "corStruct")
value
}
<environment: namespace:ape>
That's it. Why do you think something is missing? Duncan Murdoch

I guess the OP is wondering about printed or plotted output and should look into the corresponding print or plot methods, but then, we need some more information to be able to help here. Best, Uwe Ligges
