[R] minimal reproducible read.fwf() example that crashes the console on windows 8 with 32-bit R
hi, if i copy and paste this (pretty straightforward) code into R 3.2.2's
32-bit console, the program dies. if i use 64-bit R, the console doesn't
die, but the process ends with a weird line-ending warning. i'm under the
impression that if the console crashes, it's a bug? but i wanted to check
with r-help that i'm not doing something silly before filing a formal bug
report..
i get the same crash using 3.2.1 but do not need setInternet2( FALSE )
if i use 3.2.22 with setInternet2( TRUE ) then the download throws an
internet connectivity error (but the console does not crash)
thanks!
