logistic model cross validation resolved

This post is NOT a question, but an answer. For readers please disregard all earlier posts by myself about this question.

I'm posting for two reasons. First to say thanks, especially to Dimitris, for suggesting the use of errorest in the ipred library. Second, so that the solution to this problem is in the archives in case it gets asked again. 
 
If one wants to run a k-fold cross-validation using specified folds, and get misclassification error and root mean squared error this is what you do. 

Below is a script that will do this returning the results of two errorest results combined into a data frame. Now this script assumes that the variable you are going to fold with is an integer. If you want to have the predicted values or models returned from each fold, the calls to errorest, can be modified. Please see the help page for control.errorest on details.

I have problem with legend command. Please look this script:

 >dcbv.fm
Time Series:
Start = 1980
End = 2002
Frequency = 1
  [1] 2994.023 3388.414 3111.762 2990.967 3077.438 3058.274 3049.934 2974.130
  [9] 2889.659 2801.790 2631.391 2661.700 2312.526 2518.968 2567.044 2443.952

 >plot(dcbv.ms,ylim=c(min(dcbv.fm),max(dcbv.ms)))

 >lines(dcbv.fm,col=2)

 >legend(1984,2500,c("DCVB-MS","DCBV-FM"),col=c(1,2),cex=.6,fill=T)

At end of script the legend of plot have only one color: black. I think the 
legend will have two colors: black and red.

Where I make mistake?

So you want filles boxes? Then you should specify the color in the fill 
argument:

  legend(1984, 2500, c("DCVB-MS", "DCBV-FM"), cex=.6, fill=1:2)

or do you want some lines?

  legend(1984, 2500, c("DCVB-MS", "DCBV-FM"), cex=.6, col=1:2, lwd=2)
