Functions are divided up into packages, which can be loaded with 
   library(packagename)

So to get the modern regression functions in the "modreg" package type
   library(modreg)


Another note: search() is more generally informative than
searchpaths(). It tells you what packages are loaded; searchpaths() tells
you where they were loaded from, which is important mostly for
programmers.
