Hello,
I am working on an R package for storing order book data. I currently
have a display method that has the following output (ob is an S4 object):
display(ob)
Current time is 09:35:02

The package already has show, summary, and plot methods.
Is there a more conventional name than display for the above output, or
is display as good as any other name?
Thanks,
Andrew
