read in large data file (tsv) with inline filter?
I have a very large tab-delimited file, too big to store in memory via
readLines() or read.delim(). Turns out I only need a few hundred of those
lines to be read in. If it were not so large, I could read the entire file
in and "grep" the lines I need. For such a large file; many calls to
read.delim() with incrementing "skip" and "nrows" parameters, followed by
grep()
