Dear List-Members, When typing the command: > help.search("plot") in Version R2.0.1, I get the following message Error in rbind(...) : number of columns of matrices must match (see arg 2) which does not make much sense to me. I remember that some time ago I would get the information expected. I do not know what happened in the mean time. Any ideas about the problem? Thanks!

It means you have a package installed with corrupt metadata. R 2.0.1 is 18 months old, and the problem has been worked around long since. Please upgrade, as the posting guide asked you to do (before posting).
