Hi,
Something along these lines should get you there:
RFF <- function(qtype, qOpt, ...) {
mc <- match.call(expand.dots=TRUE)
vec <- c("flag","sep","dec")
matchedargs <- match(vec, names(mc), FALSE)
}
'matchedargs' will be a vector of the positions in mc where it matched
'vec' (or 0 if it did not). If you just want to extract the actual
arguments passed afterward, use the [[ extraction operator.
Cheers,
Josh
