I have a vague memory of a discussion that ended with the conclusion
that words like "colour" should be spelt "color"; at least in function
names and function arguments. IIRC, this was for compatible reasons
with S/S-Plus.
Does your comment mean that we can send it patches for help pages in
which "colour" is spelt "color" (e.g. lines in package:graphics) and
such patches would be applied?
Sorry, couldn't resist. :)
Cheers,
Berwin
