[Rd] suggestion for sweep help page

Dear all,

I stumbled over the fact that sweep in fact calls FUN with appropriate arrays.
I used to think of it as apply-like to call a function with n-dimensional and 
n-1-dimensional arguments.

I suggest to put a sentence like:

sweep appropriately repeats STATS, and calls FUN with two arrays of the same size.

into the help page to clarify what input FUN should expect.
