Thanks! (For some reason this drew a blank when I tried it before ... ).

perhaps because help.search does approximate matching and found everything with 'print' in as well? I get about 12 screens of matches to that, but because I knew sprintf was in there _somewhere_ I found it.


You can turn off approximate matching with:

help.search("printf",agrep=F)

which gives the one true match.
