Title: Utilities for strings and function arguments.

Author: G. Grothendieck

Description: gsubfn is like gsub but can take a replacement function

   or certain other objects instead of the replacement string.

   Matches and back references are input to the replacement function and 

   replaced by the function output.   gsubfn can be used to split strings 

   based on content rather than delimiters and for quasi-perl-style string 

   interpolation. The package also has facilities for translating formulas 

   to functions and allowing such formulas in function calls instead of 

   functions.  This can be used with R functions such as apply, sapply,

   lapply, optim, integrate, xyplot, Filter and any other function that 

   expects another function as an input argument or functions like cat

   or sql calls that may involve strings where substitution is desirable.
