I downloaded a text file which has several lines of text before the header line of the data, similar to this:

---start---

Date,Open,High,Low,Settle,Volume,OpenInt,

09-Jun-2009,0,476.75,469.5,476.75,0,0,
...

After I download the file using R, how do I remove the lines of text
that appear before the header line (Date, Open, ...)?
