R help - May 2004 - Is there a way to represent the ... argument in signature?

Hi!

I guess that it cant work. but maybee I am wrong.
I would like to define a function rbind.
> rbind
function (..., deparse.level = 1) 
{
which works only for objects of class Myclass

Is it possible to use something like
setMethod("rbind",signature(...="Myclass",deparse.level="numeric")
This gives an error. 
Or should I use
rbind.Myclass

Eryk.

Have a look at rbind.zoo in the zoo package for an example.
