Consider the following example:
# substitute a with b in the indicated function. Seems to work.
> z <- substitute( function()a+1, list(a=quote(b)) )
> z
function() b + 1
# z is an object of class call so use eval
# to turn it into an object of class expression; however,
# when z is evaluated, the variable a returns.
> eval(z)
function()a+1
Why did a suddenly reappear again after it had already been replaced?
