Hi,

I've been struggling with this problem the last few days and finally
discovered it's happening at a very fundamental level. Going through
Stephen Turner's tutorial on ggplot2, I entered these base graphics
commands:


with(diamonds, plot(carat,price))
with(diamonds, plot(carat,price), xlab="Weight in Carats",

   ylab="Price in USD", main="Diamonds are expensive!")


Remove the extraneous ")".

The first command works as expected and draws the plot with labels
"carat" and "price" and no title. The second command makes R redraw  
the

plot (I can see it clear and redraw), but it's identical to the first!
What am I doing wrong?
