Subject: [Rd] problem plotting "ts" in a data.frame
Message-ID: <56BA6EAA.7080003@prodsyse.com>

Hello:


       I'm having trouble plotting an object of class "ts" that is in a 
data.frame.  I can do it with(data.frame, plot(...)) but not with 
plot(..., data.frame);  see the example below.


       This work around gets me past this problem.  However, I thought 
the R Core team might want to know about this if they don't already.


       Thanks for all your work in making R and CRAN the great tools 
that they are -- and I apologize for wasting your time if you are 
already familiar with this.
