Dear all,
I would like to run the follwing command in R 0.62.2:
all.scanned <- scan ("all.txt", what= character (), sep=
";")
Now my Problem is that the character fields separated by ; also contain
tabs and returns which I would like to conserve. The tabs are properly
translated into \t but the returns are taken to be field separators too.
When I change the returns into \n in the text file they become \\n after
being scanned.
Is there some way around this?
By the way, are the r-lists archived?
Thanks and regards,
