you can use print.htest directly for the components which _are_ elements of objects of class `htest' and provide your one print method for all others. If your class `foo' (essentially) extends `htest', a simple version of `print.foo' could by print.foo <- function(x, ...) { # generate an object of class `htest' y <- x class(y) <- "htest" # maybe modify some thinks like y$method ... # print y using `print.htest' without copying code print(y) # and now print additional information cat(x$whatsoever) } > -- > Lep pozdrav / With regards, > Gregor GORJANC > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > University of Ljubljana > Biotechnical Faculty URI: http://www.bfro.uni-lj.si/MR/ggorjan > Zootechnical Department email: gregor.gorjanc <at> bfro.uni-lj.si > Groblje 3 tel: +386 (0)1 72 17 861 > SI-1230 Domzale fax: +386 (0)1 72 17 888 > Slovenia > > ______________________________________________ > R-devel@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel > > ______________________________________________ R-devel@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
