What version of R are you using? In 2.12.0 I get > x <- 1:7 > y <- function(...)list(...) > z <- runif(3) # creates .Random.seed also > str(as.list(.GlobalEnv)) # add all.names=TRUE to get .Random.seed List of 3 $ z: num [1:3] 0.698 0.475 0.354 $ y:function (...) ..- attr(*, "source")= chr "function(...)list(...)" $ x: int [1:7] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 > str(eapply(.GlobalEnv, function(x)x)) # all.names=TRUE ok here also List of 3 $ z: num [1:3] 0.698 0.475 0.354 $ y:function (...) ..- attr(*, "source")= chr "function(...)list(...)" h$ x: int [1:7] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Use environment() instead of .GlobalEnv if you want to process the current environment. In any version of R sapply() can give incorrect results, as in (in a fresh vanilla R session): > x <- 1:4 > y <- 11:14 > z <- 21:24 > str(sapply(ls(), get)) int [1:4, 1:3] 1 2 3 4 11 12 13 14 21 22 ... - attr(*, "dimnames")=List of 2 ..$ : NULL ..$ : chr [1:3] "x" "y" "z" or, in another fresh session > FUN <- "a string named FUN" > X <- 17 > sapply(ls(), get) $FUN function (x, pos = -1, envir = as.environment(pos), mode = "any", inherits = TRUE) .Internal(get(x, envir, mode, inherits)) $X [1] "FUN" "X" as.list(envir) and eapply(envir, function(x)x) do not have problems in those cases.
