so it's there on every machine that has R installed) but find lots of other
answeres (e.g., cor2cov). It is thus perhaps too simple-minded to assume
that when I search for foobar, and if there is a function with exactly that
name, it would appear as the first answer.  You can find cov2cor by
searching for "Correlation, Variance and Covariance (Matrices)" (an
unlikely search string:).
