This is the sort of response that gives R-help a bad name.

I had a reasonably thorough look at these help files and saw  
***nothing***
that would answer the OP's question.  The information may be there  
--- I'm
not sure about this --- but it is far from obvious.  Explicit reference
to the appropriate lines of the help file(s) would be useful.
