It looks to me like what I want to do isn't possible. I've been
reading the "R Language Definition" manual more, and have realized
that the "for" function is a .Primitive, not an enclosure. This
means that its arguments are passed by value, so I don't think it is
possible to access them from within the body of the function. The-
work around for what I wanted to do works, so it doesn't much
matter.
Just didn't want to waste anybody's time trying to answer this...
Thanks,
Mike
