But it could give an informative error message. Asking for formals() seems to make sense so making it work seems like a good idea. I'll agree that it working might encourage someone to try formals<-(), but the fact that it cannot do anything but error seems like a strange reason not to make formals() work. + seth -- Seth Falcon | Computational Biology | Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center http://bioconductor.org ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
