I would like to create a vector of pairlist (flag, binary_value)  like:

 (variable ="TrendOff",     value = 0)
 (variable ="MOdwt",        value = 1)
 (variable ? "ZeroPadding", value =1) 
  ................................................

I tried the following syntax but the emcompassing list (that I called "flags") is not made up of pairlists. Instead it is
made up of two apparently disjoint lists:


> flags_val <- c( 0,1,1,1,4,1,1,1,4,1,1,1,4,1,1,1,4,1,1)
>  flags_nam <- c("TrendOff","MOdwt","ZeroPadding",
+                 "Step1HSOff","Step1NumHSOff","Step1NumHSOff","Step1ExtOff",
+                 "Step2HSOff","Step2NumHSOff","Step2NumHSOff","Step2ExtOff",
+                 "Step3HSOff","Step3NumHSOff","Step3NumHSOff","Step3ExtOff",
+                 "Step4HSOff","Step4NumHSOff","Step4NumHSOff","Step4ExtOff" )
>  flags_nam 
 [1] "TrendOff"      "MOdwt"         "ZeroPadding"   "Step1HSOff"    "Step1NumHSOff" "Step1NumHSOff"
 [7] "Step1ExtOff"   "Step2HSOff"    "Step2NumHSOff" "Step2NumHSOff" "Step2ExtOff"   "Step3HSOff"   
[13] "Step3NumHSOff" "Step3NumHSOff" "Step3ExtOff"   "Step4HSOff"    "Step4NumHSOff" "Step4NumHSOff"
[19] "Step4ExtOff"  
> flags <- pairlist (data = flags_val, variable = flags_nam) 
> flags
$data
 [1] 0 1 1 1 4 1 1 1 4 1 1 1 4 1 1 1 4 1 1

$variable
 [1] "TrendOff"      "MOdwt"         "ZeroPadding"   "Step1HSOff"    "Step1NumHSOff" "Step1NumHSOff"
 [7] "Step1ExtOff"   "Step2HSOff"    "Step2NumHSOff" "Step2NumHSOff" "Step2ExtOff"   "Step3HSOff"   
[13] "Step3NumHSOff" "Step3NumHSOff" "Step3ExtOff"   "Step4HSOff"    "Step4NumHSOff" "Step4NumHSOff"
[19] "Step4ExtOff"  


Please, can someone teach me how to create a vector of pairlists ? 
I could find no illustrating on-line example.
Thank you very much.
