That's probably because most people who use R are using it for its statistical specificity, and if they wanted to write a web server or a chess game or an image editor they'd do it another language! Have you really gone through all the documentation resources listed under the 'Documentation' section sidemenu from www.r-project.org? Try the list of 'other docs' on CRAN: http://cran.r-project.org/other-docs.html I think possibly the most stats-free reference is Chambers' "Programming with Data". Get a copy of that...
