There's something (probably a lot) missing in my understanding of
plotmath. The LaTeX code for what I'm trying to produce is

\log(-\log(\hat R))

My (probably hopeless) attempt at it uses nested group()s:

expression(plain(log) * group("(", -plain(log)*group("(", \hat(R), ")"),
")"))

Can anyone do it right for me, please?

Here's my attempt

expression(log(-log(hat(italic(R)))))

Unlike TeX, if you want italics you have to ask for it.

(If you are attempting anthing serious, the TeX package psfrag is worth a look.)
