R devel - Apr 2001 - documentation problems in str.Rd (PR#899)

File `src/library/base/man/str.Rd' shows the usage

  ls.str(name, pattern, mode = "any", max.level = 1, give.attr =
FALSE)

whereas the code for ls.str() really has

  function (..., mode = "any", max.level = 1, give.attr = FALSE)

where the `...' is passed to ls().

The usage indicates `pattern' as a positional argument, which it is not.
Hence, e.g.
  ls.str("package:base", "^a")
will not work as documented.

I think one needs to document the `...' structure and say that the ...
args are passed on to ls().

Also, currently arguments `name', `pattern' and `mode' to ls.str()
and
argument `...' to lsf.str() and the str* functions are not documented.
