[R] Fwd: problem importing apparently common txt files
Dear list, I would like to import into R studio txt files coming from Adobe photoshop. These files contain different measures. The files are apparently common txt files with columns separate by tab. However with common function read.table the import process doesn't work and weird symbols appear once imported. An example file is attached. Do you have any idea what it is happening? Thank you in advance Zuzana Here just a view of a file.
