You need to improve your searching skills:

rhelpSearch
function(string,
          restrict = c("Rhelp10", "Rhelp08", "Rhelp02", "functions" ),
          matchesPerPage = 100, ...) {
                 RSiteSearch(string=string,
                 restrict = restrict,
                 matchesPerPage = matchesPerPage, ...)}

rhelpSearch("generate multivariate gamma")

Finds (after a small bit of web-clicking) this from
