Paul:
No such change is needed. You do not understand S3 methods. See
?plot.default and read about S3 methods (e.g. in the tutorial
Introduction to R or the Language manual).

"Men by nature long to get on to the ultimate truths, and will often
be impatient with elementary studies or fight shy of them. If it were
possible to reach the ultimate truths without the elementary studies
usually prefixed to them, these would not be preparatory studies but
superfluous diversions."

-- Maimonides (1135-1204)
