Estimate the memory required for an object.
A more general dimension function
Create fake text for testing purposes
Obtain an index of all instances of values with duplicates (ordered)
Split a text file into multiple parts
Does object exist ignoring functions
The exists() function can tell you whether an object exists
at all, or whether an object exists with a certain type, but
it can be useful to know whether an object exists as genuine
data (and not a function) which can be important when a variable
or object is accidently or intentionally given the same name as
a function. This function usually returns a logical value as to
the existence of the object (ignoring functions) but can also
be set to return the non-function type if the object exists.

Times an expression, with breakdown of time spent in each function
Remove leading and trailing spaces (or other character).
Creates a progess bar within a loop
Return a string with each first letter of each word in upper case.
Find data thresholds corresponding to percentiles
Print a vector with appropriate padding so each has equal char length.
Summary of RAM footprint for all R objects in the current session.
Not my function, but taken from an R-Help response by Elizabeth Purdom,
at Berkeley. Simply applies the function 'object.size' to the objects
in ls(). Also very similar to an example in the 'Help' for the
utils::object.size() function.
