Well, you may have to invest in a book or two to get what you want.You can start with R's own "An Introduction to R," but if that won't do, check the CRAN website, specifically the R Home Page under the "Books" link. John Chambers's latest (Software for Data Analysis) is pretty comprehensive. O'Reilly has a couple in their series, also.There are many at various levels and emphases though. For a shorter resource, check out Patrick Burns's website. He writes well for newbies.
