[R] Summary: Obtaining names of ``...'' arguments.

[Rolf Turner]

I received two answers to my inquiry:

(1) as.character(substitute(list(...)))[-1]

		(due to Thomas Lumley)

(2) as.character(match.call(expand.dots = FALSE)$"...")

		(due to Deepayan Sarkar)

Both seem to do exactly what I want.

Thanks.

					cheers,
