LaF 0.3: fast access to large ASCII files
...t into memory, methods 
are provided to access and process file blockwise. Furthermore, an 
opened file can be indexed as one would a data.frame. In this way 
subsets. or specific columns can be read into memory. For example, 
assuming that an object laf has been created using one of the functions 
laf_open_csv or laf_open_fwf, the third column from the file can be read 
into memory using:
 > col <- laf[,3]
