This code:

> plot(1:10)
> text(5,5,lab=expression(italic(22*"33")))

has the effect of italicizing 33 (which is a character string) but not 22
(which is not).  I would have thought that both, not just 33, would be
italicized.

I had previously posted about this last week:

however, no one responded.
