You know where I can find the C code so that I can decipher it.
You can download the source R bundle (a .tar.gz or tar.bz, for example http://cran.stat.ucla.edu/src/base/R-2/R-2.13.0.tar.gz), unpack it, then navigate to the R source directory, go to subdirectory src/library/stats/src and look at the file ks.c. The R function ks.test is defined in src/library/stats/R/ks.test.R.
