Current R says
...: Arguments to the 'device' function above. For 'dev.print',
this includes 'which' and by default any 'postscript'
arguments.
For 'dev.copy2eps', 'width' and 'height' are taken from the
current device unless otherwise specified. If just one of 'width'
and 'height' is specified, the other is adjusted to preserve the
aspect ratio of the device being copied. The default file name is
'Rplot.eps'.
I'm not sure why 'file' is more important than any other argument
mentioned in ..., but we do say what the default is (because it is
different). Can you tell us what more we 'should' say in your opinion,
and why?
