For print, these are arguments passed on to
print.matrix. For close, they're ignored.
A fameConnection is an integer with attributes "service", "host", "user" and "password".
fameConnection uses the C HLI function cfmopen to
create a connection to a Fame service. The connection it returns can
be used in subsequent calls to fameWildlist or getfame.
The print and close functions, when called on a
fameConnection, do what they say.
