[R] searching help for partial matches

The situation is that I know there is a function and know approximately what
the name is, and want to find the exact name. Is there a way of searching
for near-matches (similar to unix apropos). For example, I know there is a
function called something like allequal (or allequals or AllEquals or...).
But ?allequal, etc, return nothing, only if I remember the name can I get
help via ?all.equal. 

Thanks
