Dear R team,

If I may offer some suggestions for specific help screens:

1.
help(plot.default):  shouldn't `type = "n"' be listed as a possible value?

also, would it be better to say, e.g., "the following values (rather than
'possibilities') are possible" ?

2.
help(glm) data: misprint (ffrom)

    data: an optional data frame containing the variables in the model.
           By default the variables are taken from the environment
          ffrom which `glm' is called.
         ^^^

3. 
help(all):  might it be helpful to add:

  "see also `any'"

and,

help(any)

  "see also `all'"  ?

Many thanks!

Rashid Nassar
