Is there a beginner/expert flag in R?  If so, for beginners, it might
be worth sending 
        help(transpose)
to 
        help.search(transpose)
instead of throwing an error.

Also, is there a means of doing a search for partial matches or regexs
(i.e. help.search(trans) or help.search(*trans*) would match to
transpose).
