R help - May 2007 - plot(......,new=T) vs. par(new=T)

Hello everybody,

This is probably a classic but I cannot find an answer to this on the  
mailing list (i.e. with a google search restricted to the mailing  
list archive). Setting:
	par(new=T)
	plot(x,y)
works but
	plot(x,y,new=T)
doesn't while it is said in plot's help that ... arguments are passed  
to par. What am I missing?

?par
There are several parameters can only be set by a call
to par(): "new" 

You just were lucky enough to find one.
