Hi:

Try (install package sos first if necessary):

library(sos)
findFn('M-estimator')

This produced 34 hits on my machine (not quite as productive as Petr's
search :), but it identifies a few packages that contain functions for
robust estimation. It's also a good way to get familiar with a very useful
search mechanism to find R functions in the maze of available packages.
Typing

RSiteSearch('M-estimator')

at the R prompt is another way to search within R.

HTH,
Dennis
