It blows windows people away when they see the "tip bar” (the bottom bar that 
shows function parameters) display all the parameters for an obscure function.

It similarly dismays mac users when it shows something un-explainatory like

function_I_havent_used_for_ages(x, …) # i.e., … instead of the list for the 
specific S3 the user wants

Question: Is there are way to 

1. modify the function bar so that if the user, for instance, fills in 
parameter 1, the tip updates with the parameters for that hanlder.

so "plot(“ would show the following in the bottom bar:

plot(x,y,…)

but  "plot(myOpenMxModel,"
would show
plot(myOpenMxModel, std = T, digits = 2, dotFilename = "name", pathLabels = 
c("none", "labels", "both”), showFixed = F, showError = T, precision = NULL)

2. With lots of parameters, the font size is too small (the list wraps and 
instead of the bar doubling in height, the font halves: If it was possible to 
either increase or fix the font size and grow the boar height, that would be 
great!

thanks,
tim
