This is a plain text mailing list, hence no red line ... in fact no  
line at all. Use some other device such also outlining with (text)  
comment lines such as:

#---need explanation for code starting here-----
R code
# ---end----

And. Read the Posting Guide. You have just quoted verbatim from the  
nomogram help page in the rms package.
