I am trying to read in data from an instrument that is recorded in 
hexadecimal format. Using either: 

    y.hex <- read.table(file="hex.data", as.is=TRUE) 

or 

    y.hex <- read.table(file="hex.data", text=TRUE) 

gets all the data in just fine except points like `055E` or `020E`. In 
these cases, the E is stripped so I get just 055 or 020. 

The question is how should this data be imported to avoid the E-ending 
problem? 

(By the way, my follow-up is to convert this data using, `y <- 
strtoi(y.hex, 16L)`) 

Thanks for any suggestions,
