In the previous release of r, theire was a index of all functions in R. It was was i understand as reference. It was simple to search in this html page by function name or by keywords. Why, by god, this page is removed in the Veriosn 1.3 of R???
Take a look at R_HOME/doc/html/function.html .... The browser-based search engine was not on that page, but help.start() will lead you to where it has always been.
In the download I received, function.html now has only this: <body> This page is obsolete. <p> See the <a href="../manual/refman.pdf">Reference Manual</a> for comprehensive information on the functions and datasets that come with the R distribution, or use the <a href="search/SearchEngine.html">Search Engine</a>.
