You should see
duplcated(x, incomparables = FALSE, ...)
in the bottom bar - at least that's what I get.
Am I the only one who has seen this feature become less predictably
available?
You'll have to be more precise as of what you see .... Since the
console essentially just evaluates capture.output(print(args(...))),
you can obviously break it by any R code that changes the behavior
of the pieces involved. But then I don't know why anyone would to
that ... ;)
The display of parameters seems to be reproducibly inhibited after
backspacing or selecting and deleting a function name that had an
argument list displayed. If I type "duplicated(", and then see an
argument list , then backspace over it and hit <enter> and then type
"duplicated(" again, I see no arguments. I did discover by accident
that I sometimes get back the desired behavior after typing
sessionInfo(). I will generally get display of arguments from other
functions after that, but "duplicated" seems to be blanked out until
<something happens to make it recognized again>.
Cheers,
Simon
