I seem to recall that S-PLUS has such a function, but I forget the
name of it.   Probably R does too, on CRAN if not in the base

objects.summary() I think it was.

It always bothered me that the Nth thing you teach Unix users is 'ls' and the N+1th thing is 'ls -l' (for very small N). Then you teach them R, and there's no 'ls -l' equivalent immediately obvious.

Not sure what such a function could show, there being no permissions, or dates on R objects, but object.size() and class/mode at least would be useful.

So is something like this in CRAN? I say +1 to putting it in the base packages....
