Forgive me, but since it's Friday and I've been thinking about command 
line options lately, I thought I'd find out who came up with the name of 
the --vanilla argument for R. From the svn log:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
r2509 | maechler | 1998-10-10 10:52:53 -0500 (Sat, 10 Oct 1998) | 2 lines
Changed paths:
    M /trunk/src/unix/system.c

new --vanilla

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Are there any interesting anecdotes about this... Did Martin Maechler 
name it? Certainly --plain could have been used instead...
