sort of fread to read from a file at fixed positions?
Hello everybody,
I need to read a file with a header (EDF files, recorded
electroencephalogram signals) that has fixed byte positions for each
field of its header.
These fields have no separator between them, for example:
<8 ascii name of the patient><10ascii start time of the recording><4
ascii ... > etc.
I read that perfectly in Octave by using fread, fseek and other
C-derived file access methods, but i dont see such a method being
avalaible in R? I read the scan help page but it doesn't seem to be able
to read x chars then from that...
