_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     `print' prints its argument and returns it invisibly (via
     `invisible(x)').  It is a generic function which means that new
     printing methods can be easily added for new `class'es.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     print(x, ...)

     print.factor(x, quote = FALSE, ...)
     print.ordered(x, quote = FALSE, ...)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

       x: an object used to select a method.

     ...: further arguments passed to or from other methods.

   quote: logical, indicating whether or not strings should be printed
          with surrounding quotes.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     The default method, `print.default' has its own help page. Use
     `methods("print")' to get all the methods for the `print' generic.

     See `noquote' as an example of a class whose main purpose is a
     specific `print' method.

_S_e_e _A_l_s_o:

     The default method `print.default', and help for the methods
     above; further `options', `noquote'.

_E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s:

     ts(1:20)#-- print  is the ``Default function'' --> print.ts(.) is called
     rr <- for(i in 1:3) print(1:i)
     rr
