Dear all,

maybe I have misunderstood something but to me it seems like a minor error
in the help for
?legend
for the argument 'bg'. There it says:

      bg: the background color for the legend box.  (Note that this is
          only used if 'bty = "n"'.)

I think, however, that it should be changed to:

      bg: the background color for the legend box.  (Note that this is
          only used if 'bty = "o"'.)

Here is some example code. And only in the upper panel we can see a legend
with a blue background.

par(mfrow=c(2,1))
plot(x=1:10, y=1:10)
legend(x=5,y=5, legend="Legend-Text", bty="o", bg="blue")

plot(x=1:10, y=1:10)
legend(x=5,y=5, legend="Legend-Text", bty="n", bg="blue")

My R version is:
> version
         _
