In the upper left corner of the help for LETTERS is Constants(base) and usually that means that ?Constants would give you the same help file. All Rd files have one name entry and one or more alias entries. help() or ? looks in the list of alias entries, not the name, but most help files include the name in the aliases. src/library/base/man/Constants.Rd does not and probably should do that also. > > -Don > > At 7:30 AM -0400 9/11/09, Gabor Grothendieck wrote: > >See ?Constants > > > >On Fri, Sep 11, 2009 at 3:13 AM, megh <megh700...@yahoo.com> wrote: > >> > >> There is an object "LETTERS" which displays all letters > from "a" to "z".
