Hi John,
Look at ?match.call you will need to make sure that expand.dots =
TRUE, but I think it does what you want. The names you want might be:
names(my_list) <- as.character(match.call(expand.dots = TRUE))[-1L]
I will point out that I am not sure you will get the desired results
with your function as it is written. I think you might want:
f <- function(...) {
d <- list(...)
lapply(d, function(x){x})
}
instead.
Hope this helps,
Josh
