R help - Dec 2004 - reading svm function in e1071

Hi,

If I try to read the codes of functions in e1071 package, it gives me following
error message.
>library(e1071)
> svm
function (x, ...)
UseMethod("svm")
<environment: namespace:e1071>
> predict.svm
Error: Object "predict.svm" not found

Can someone help me on this how to read the codes of the functions in the e1071
package?

Thanks.

It's in the R FAQ.  Try getAnywhere("predict.svm").

The predict method for class `svm' is hidden in a namespace.  Try

getS3method("predict", "svm")
