Use of the graphical parameter 'sub' in a high level graphics function is
inconsistent, and incompatible with the blue book
> plot(1:10, main="test", sub="demo")
Warning: parameter "sub" couldn't be set in high-level plot() function
Warning: parameter "sub" couldn't be set in high-level plot() function
Warning: parameter "sub" couldn't be set in high-level plot() function
Warning: parameter "sub" couldn't be set in high-level plot() function
Warning: parameter "sub" couldn't be set in high-level plot() function
Warning: parameter "sub" couldn't be set in high-level plot() function
... and why so many warnings?
> hist(1:10, main="test", sub="demo")
Warning: parameter "sub" couldn't be set in high-level plot() function
Warning: parameter "sub" couldn't be set in high-level plot() function
... despite the warnings the sub title is drawn !
I think the problem existed in earlier releases of R but the warnings were not
printed.
Above with R-0.62.1 under Solaris 2.5.1.
