R help - Sep 2005 - Apply a function for each Row

Dear All,
 
I wonder how to apply a given function to  each row of a data frame. I've
seen this function before  but don't remember its name....
 
Thank you,
 
Bernard

A small catch:  Marc wants to apply the function to rows of a data frame,
but apply() expects a matrix or array, and will coerce to such if given a
data frame, which may (or may not) be problematic...
