John,
If you install the packages, help files will be installed along with them. If you don't want to install first, go to
http://cran.r-project.org/
And select packages under software on the left hand side of the screen. You will be able to look at some documentation there, e.g. there is a manual for lme4 available.
Hope this is helpful,
Dan
