This is becoming quite vexatious Peng Yu. How long have you been using 
R? You are not a total newbie. R is an environment which rewards a bit 
of exploration and experimentation.

Every package has a maintainer whose email is given on CRAN. In the case 
of the contrast package that is at
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/contrast/index.html

It ain't that hard.
