Thank you for the suggestion. But editing deparsed code is of almost no use to us: you need to edit the sources. And even then mailers may distort it, so it really is much easier to file these things as attachments on bugs.r-project.org, as a wishlist item.

I have incorporated what I think you intended in R-devel, so please test it.

  Hi all,

  I had the need to create a colorbar considering the alpha channel of the 
colors, but colorRamp() and colorRampPalette() ignored the alpha argument in 
rgb(). So I performed some minor modifs. in their codes, as to support the 
interpolation using the alpha channel.

  I guess that those simple modifications might be useful for other people, so 
perhaps it would be worth to add them to colorRamp and colorRampPalette codes 
in grDevices… the modified functions follows.

  Cheers,

  Alberto.

colorRampPalette <- function (colors, ...) {
     ramp <- colorRamp(colors, ...)
     function(n) {
         x <- ramp(seq.int(0, 1, length.out = n))
         rgb(x[, 1], x[, 2], x[, 3], x[, 4], maxColorValue = 255)
     }
}

colorRamp <- function (colors, bias = 1, space = c("rgb", "Lab"), interpolate = 
c("linear", "spline")) {
     if (bias <= 0)
         stop("'bias' must be positive")
     colors <- t(col2rgb(colors, alpha=T)/255)
     space <- match.arg(space)
     interpolate <- match.arg(interpolate)
     if (space == "Lab") {
         colors <- convertColor(colors, from = "sRGB", to = "Lab")
     }
     interpolate <- switch(interpolate, linear = stats::approxfun, spline = 
stats::splinefun)
     if ((nc <- nrow(colors)) == 1L) {
         colors <- colors[c(1L, 1L), ]
         nc <- 2L
     }
     x <- seq.int(0, 1, length.out = nc)^bias
     palette <- c(interpolate(x, colors[, 1]), interpolate(x, colors[, 2]), 
interpolate(x, colors[, 3]), interpolate(x, colors[, 4]))
     roundcolor <- function(rgb) pmax(pmin(rgb, 1), 0)
     if (space == "Lab") {
         function(x) {
             roundcolor(convertColor(cbind(palette[[1L]](x), palette[[2L]](x),
                 palette[[3L]](x), palette[[4L]](x)), from = "Lab", to = 
"sRGB")) *
                 255
         }
     }
     else {
         function(x) {
             roundcolor(cbind(palette[[1L]](x), palette[[2L]](x),
