I think you want some eval/substitute action, such as
fc <- function(m) { eval(substitute(curve(m))) }

Consider the curve function which plots expressions in 'x':

Now wrap that in the most naive wrapper function:

and try it:

What could be done to my 'fc' or the expression processing of curve to make this sort of thing work?
What I also want to do is provide a default, something like:
fc = function(m=sqrt(x)){curve(m)}
It's not actually curve() that I want to call, but something similar I've written myself, so I can fiddle with that as I wish.
I've had a read of the R Language Definition - I imagine the answer is in there somewhere...
