match.call() will return the call. merge.zoo in the zoo package
uses it if you need an example. as.list(match.call()) will return
a list.
list(...) will return the ... arguments as a list.
$.proto in the proto package allows one to write p$f where p
is a proto object and f is a function and p$
Thanks for your replies! The will require some study on my part, which is
good: a lot to learn.

Hi. I'm pretty new to R, but I've been programming in other languages for
some time. I have a couple of questions regarding programming with function
objects.
1. Is there a way for a function to refer generically to all its actual
arguments as a list? I'm thinking of something like the @_ array
