So it's in package R.base, which *is* what help.search() says.

Well, in 1.7.0 full install on Mac OS X (someone made an image with most of the packages and that is what I installed) help.search ("zscore") just returns R.base without any other info (of course, it was the search). help("zscore") return not found and help("zscore", package=R.base) return "R.base is built for Win32". Which is very wierd. I tried quitting R (it had been on a week or so) in case some package I loaded removed it or something. However, that didn't recover it. Then, I quit R again and lo and behold I get a full help for zscore telling me "Gets the Z scores (standardized residuals)..." BUT, when I call the function it still says "Error: couldn't find function "zscore". This is very strange. I'll try scale and see if it does what I wanted. zscore sounded perfect though. If I could clean up this problem I would, but I don't know if it is a function that was pulled, a function missing, or what the actual state is supposed to be.
