R help - Aug 2009 - increasing significant digits in smooth.spline function

Hello All

I have a very long vector of unique predictor values and 6 significant
digits setting for the smooth.spline rounds them off. Is there any way
of increasing the significant digits withour recompiling a lot if code
(simple editing and tham sourcing of "smooth.spline.r" function does
not
work, probably due to presence of Fortan functional calls)? 

Thank you very much in advance

?options

options("digits"=12)

What you see on the screen is not necessarily what is happening  
"inside". There is no rounding unless you force such.
