R devel - Nov 2005 - Documentation error in online help for print.data.frame (PR#8273)

Full_Name: Cyrus Harmon
Version: 2.3.0 devel
OS: Mac OS X 10.4.3
Submission from: (NULL) (169.229.10.51)


The Usage in the print.data.frame help page says:

print(x, ..., digits=NULL, quote=FALSE, right=TRUE)

meanwhile, down in the Arguments section it says:

  right: logical, indicating whether or not strings should be
           right-aligned. The default is left-alignment.

This seems to be at odds with the right=TRUE in the Usage, and with what I see
when I print a data.frame.

Fixed in R-devel.
