I like the head() and tail() functions -- nice additions.

head(plot.default)
[1] function (x, y = NULL, type = \p\, xlim = NULL, ylim = NULL,
[2] log = \\, main = NULL, sub = NULL,

Add to package utils in R-devel, after correction. I was surprised you

Very handy functions for checking data manipulation.
