You have a couple of options: 1) typing the name of the function will list the source within your R console. For example: > ls will list the source code for the ls() function. So once you load your package, you can simply enter the name of the function whose source you wish to see and you will see.
2) The above will not work if the function has not been exported via the NAMESPACE file. In this case you have to download the .tar.gz file from CRAN to view the source. After you unzip and untar the downloaded file, you can look in the R/ or src/ directories for the function you are interested in. As the names suggest, R/ contains R code, while src/ contains C or Fortran code used in the package.
