It is searchable (use your browser's search facilities), and that is often helpful. But you can do your search at search.r-project.org (thanks to Jonathan Baron): select 'Complete list of all packages', select a package and browse its help. If you are looking for a way to do Box-Cox, or the function boxcox(), search on that site, or for packages you already have installed, use help.search(). One reason we find it useful to have a system with all packages installed (that do install) is to make it easy for our users to search for what they want, and then use it.
