[R] Question concerning Loading large Data Sets

Also,

In case there is any confusion... "~/Vakul's GBM code" was set up
in the
working directory (via setwd) as the folder in which the file
'mapper.txt'
is contained... thereby making the "~/Vakul's GBM code/mapper.txt"
as
shown.

Should I perhaps reset my working directory to the file I'm trying to
access, exclusively?
