There has been much discussion on this topic on this mailing list
recently, and an important result is that there is no complete user guide.
Like any computer language, R is extensible, and there is no complete
listing.  If you know what you are looking for, for example 'urgent
question', try this in R:

 help.search.archive<-function(string){
   RURL="http://www.google.com/u/newcastlemaths"
   RSearchURL=paste(RURL,"?q=",string,sep='')
   browseURL(RSearchURL)
   return(invisible(0))
 }
 # and

help.search.archive("urgent question") # to find urgent questions
