[Rd] [patch] add=TRUE in plot.default()

[Andrew Clausen]

Hi all,

As long as I've used R, add=TRUE hasn't worked in contexts like this:

	f <- function(x) x^2
	X <- seq(0, 1, by=1/4)
	plot(f, col="blue")
	plot(X, f(X), col="red", type="l", add=TRUE)

I attached a fix for version 2.6.2.

Cheers,
Andrew
