Sirs:

I understand that no one wanted to maintain the old Help, but one feature I
used extensively -- as a newbie to R or to an unfamiliar package -- was the
capability of searching for a word or phrase on the Help page itself.
Ctrl-F/Command-F (Windows/mac) 'differently-phrased-capability' was a fast
way to find out how to specify the arguments for a function call to
accommodate a "capability" phrased differently than could be found in the
author's designed argument list, especially for long and informative Help's.
If new-Help could easily be enhanced to resurrect that feature, I believe
many users would appreciate it. Thanks.

Dan Murphy
