1Download the package source, and read it – David Heffernan Nov 19 '13 at 07:47

Sounds to me like you're actually in need of a decompiler, like boomerang. C isn't a scripting language, after all... – Elias Van Ootegem Nov 19 '13 at 08:09

1@EliasVanOotegem R packages are open-source. No decompiler required to view the source code. – Roland Nov 19 '13 at 10:24

@Roland: in which case, David Heffernan's comment is the answer... :-P – Elias Van Ootegem Nov 19 '13 at 10:45

Actually I think you're looking for https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/src/library/stats/src/optimize.c and/or https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/src/appl/uncmin.c. `nlm` is not a "package", it's a **function** that is part of base R. – Ben Bolker Nov 19 '13 at 13:59

Take a look here in this R News article about sources
Also some googling around, I found references that the functionality you are looking for is in:
src/main/optimize.c
