Thanks. Exactly what I wanted.
As usual, I played around with all sorts of things to try and get the

I have a problem with expressions. I am trying to create a title where the
parameter of interest is displayed as a Greek character. Which parameter is
being considered is stored in a character variable.
As an example, if I have
param<- "alpha"
param<- as.name("alpha")
HTH,
Chuck
and then do
plot(0, 0, main = bquote(Parameter==.(param)))
then in the title I get "Parameter = alpha",
whereas I want the Greek character alpha.
