Description

Tools to help text files importation. It can return the number of lines; print the first and last lines; convert encoding; guess delimiters and file encoding. Operations are made without reading the entire file before starting, resulting in good performances with large files. This package provides an alternative to a simple use of the 'head', 'tail', 'wc' and 'iconv' programs that are not always available on machine where R is installed.
