R help - Mar 2006 - Is there a way to view S-PLUS script files in R

Dear List,

I have some S-PLUS script files (.ssc).  Does there exist an R
function/command  that can read such files?  I simply want to view the
code and practice in R to help me learn the subject matter.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

platform i386-pc-mingw32
arch     i386
os       mingw32
system   i386, mingw32
status
major    2
minor    2.1
year     2005
month    12
day      20
svn rev  36812
language R

You can open .ssc files in Windows Notepad, then either cut and paste
the commands or type them out.  Typing them out may seem a little
excessive but it is one way to learn the syntax and structure of S/R, or
should that be R/S

You can open them in R.  On Windows, File:Open Script,
change "Files of type" to "All Files", then open the .ssc
file.
