R packages - Sep 2017 - New CRAN Package Announcement: asciiSetupReader

I'm pleased to announce that asciiSetupReader is now on CRAN:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/asciiSetupReader/index.html

This package allows users to read ASCII files that have an SPSS or SAS
setup file (.sps or .sas). Datasets that come in these txt-sps and txt-sas
paris can now be accessible through R. The function has the option of
correcting value labels (e.g. 1 to Male, 2 to Female) and column names
(e.g. V1 to Sex). You may also select only certain columns to read in which
is helpful when dealing with very large data sets.

A vignette is available explaining how to use the package with SPSS setup
files. The process is the same as for SAS setup files.

Please let me know if you if you find any bugs or problems in the package.
