I'm using R since version 1.6, and I didn't redefine plot in my

didn't change any R-environment variable or option in the last 4 month. In my example x is a vector of 30 real values ...
I installed the windows service pack2 lately and I removed it now as the microsoft help desk suggested, but the problem is still there and it is there even with a new computer on which I installed R for the first time yesterday. The real problem is that the copy-paste procedure is not recognized any more on these two computers. If I try to paste any command using other editors then WinEdt the problem is still there it extends to almost all R commands, only assign and basic arithmetic is performed correctly
And the same command works when typed in the Console in exactly the same way?
in the last two days I tried the following editors: 1. the display file window in the RGUI 2. RWinEdt 3. Xemacs 3. Word pad 4. Block notes With no changes.
Conclusion: How it may happen that the copy and paste procedure stop working?
Please specify a reproducible example, i.e. the data, and the code! What is the output of str(x)? Does it still happen when R has been started with --vanilla?

Dear All,
In the last few days I started using the last version of R as I encountered a problem with R1.9 and the use of RWinEdt, however the problem shows with R2.01 as well. More precisely
1. I install R2.01 after removing old verions of R
2. I Install RWinEdt package versione RWinEdt_1.6-2 and SWinRegistry_0.3-2 and everything seems fine 3. I recall the RWinEdt library (library(RWinEdt)) and WinEdt appears 4. now after loading a workspace I run the following command using the paste icon in WinEdt:
plot(x,xaxt="n",xlab="time",
ylab=expression(alpha),main=nome,type="l")
And I get the following error message: <<Error in stripchart(x, ...) : unused argument(s) (xaxt ...)>>From now on the plot command stops working, it doesn't recognize anyoption not even type="l" or type="b" or anything.
If I type the intrusction directly on the command window without any previous paste operation from WinEdt the command works properly.
Furthermore if I try to paste commands by simply coping it from a text
file and pasting it on the R command window I have the same problem. I
even tried:
source("prova.txt") containing the same command line and I got the same
error:
Error in stripchart(x, ...) : unused argument(s) (xaxt ...)
I'm not very good at using Windows XP, can anyone help?
Thanks Giovanna Jona Lasinio
Please don't complain about R-WinEdt, WinEdt, other editors, or Windows if the point is obviously somewhere else!
1. Have you redefined plot() in your workspace? 2. What kind of object is x (in particular it's class, please!)?
