Following Uwe's and Dirk's suggestions, here's a first pass at a list of
interesting "general" help pages:
?Arithmetic
?Comparison
?Control
?DateTimeClasses
?Defunct
?Deprecated
?Devices
?Extract
?Foreign
?Logic
?Memory
?Paren
?Rdconv (RdUtils page: Rdconv, Rd2dvi, Rd2txt, Sd2Rd)
?Special (beta, gamma, choose, ...)
?Startup
?Syntax
?build (PkgUtils page: R CMD build, R cmd check)
?connections (file, pipe, ...)
?pi (Constants page: LETTERS, letters, month.abb, month.name, pi)
Note that the RdUtils, PkgUtils, and Constants pages cannot be accessed through
their names ("?RdUtils", etc).
I'd also suggest two additional general pages (which do not currently exist):
?System (system, .Platform, Sys.info, Sys.getenv, Sys.putenv, getwd, setwd)
?Graphics (covering plot, lines, points, segments, par, Devices)
