What command lists everything in a package?

Hi, Two easy questions I'm sure. 1) As an example if I use the code require(zoo) then once it's loaded is there a command that lists everything that zoo provides so that I can study the package? Certainly help(zoo) gives me some clues about what zoo does but I'd like a list. Maybe there's a way to query something but in Rgui under Win Vista ls() returns nothing after zoo is loaded. 2) Related to the above, how do I tell what packages are currently loaded at any given time so that I don't waste time loading things that are already loaded? search() tells me what's available, but what's loaded? The best I can find so far goes like this: > a<-.packages(all.available = FALSE) > a [1] "zoo" "stats" "graphics" "grDevices" "utils" "datasets" [7] "methods" "base" > Maybe that's as good as it gets in code and if I want better then I write a function? Thanks, Mark
