1. Whatever we do with the "RSiteSearch" function, it should
still be available every time R starts. If we put it in its own
package, it should still be autoloaded with "base", "utils", "stats", etc.

Searching vignettes only can be of interest to users. If someone is

But help really needs to be delivered with R, not an addon.
It should not be necessary to know how to install packages
just to get this level of help. I think it needs to be where it
is now.

We could have a few functions similar to RSiteSearch or gmaneSearch I
just posted and then cook a summary html page with R ...
Here is a function that grabs relevant groups from gmane:
gmaneGroups <- function( prefix = "gmane.comp.lang.r." ){
url <- URLencode( sprintf(
"http://dir.gmane.org

About this:
gmaneSearch <- function( string,
group = "gmane.comp.lang.r.*", author = "", sort = c("relevance",
"date", "revdate"),
op = c("and", "or") ){
sort <- match.arg(sort)

Emacs creates self-contained exe files using a library called 'unexec'; this
allows all initialization, library loading, etc.
