Well, shooting from the hip ... Something like the following ought to do
the trick.
"stamp" <-
function (string = date(), print = TRUE, plot = TRUE)
{
if (print)
cat(string)
if (plot && .Device != "null device") {
mar <- par("mar")[[1]]
usr <- par("usr")
plt <- par("plt")
at <- usr[2] + (usr[2] - usr[1]) * (1 - plt[2]) / (plt[2] - plt[1])
mtext(string, side = 1, adj = 1, line = mar - 1, at = at)
}
}
It doesn't place the label in the plot identically, but this is the
spirit of the function.
[ This has also revealed a bug in the "date" function. It leaves a
newline appended to the date string. ]
