I was just playing around with the R-streams package, reading in some data from an old experiment we did here, and was again amazed by the flexibility of the R environment. The eaze with wich I was able to generate simple plots of my EEG data made me wonder if someone tried to implement an ERP package. For the non-cognitive scientists ou there: EEG is electrical activity measured from the scalp

This is just to let people know that I'm going to try to put together a little package of binary file read/write functions for R, along the lines described in my message in r-help. I'm going to do it first in R for Windows using a DLL written in Delphi; I'll let people comment on that, and once the design settles down, I'll redo the external code in C so that it should be portable

Is there any way to write (8-bit) bytes to a file which works on all [R] platforms? I have been looking at 1) writeBin 2) writeChar 3) cat and neither of them manage to write arbitrary sequences of bytes (0-255). For instance, I would like to create a binary file of length three containing the bytes 0, 1 and 0. I [R] I have the following vector of bytes: bfr <- c(0,1,0) 1) For
