IIRC, the license stated in the source code of dataplot is rather restrictive. I don't think one is allowed to use the source as can be done with GPL code.

.... The site states it is "public domain software" -- open source? I can't find anything about the license. In any case... http://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/software/dataplot/ Brett A.

Hello all, I am trying to read a table in via ftp, something like this: read.table("ftp://ftp.the.file.com/the/directory/file.txt") The trouble with that is, our ftp server is picky and wants my username and password. Oh, bother. My question: Is there a way to send user/pass and read the file into R? I am using R 1.5.1 on Windows 98. Thanks, Brett A. Magill, Evaluator

I have a file in fwf. It is rather large, about 40,000 rows and 40 variables (columns). I only need about 10 variables form the data set for the analysis at hand. Unfortunately, these 10 variables are not contiguous in the file, for example, the first is position 1-8, the next position 25-27, then 40. Is there a way to read the selected varaibles that I need without reading in the entire data
