Hi,
perhaps you should simply read the content of a corresponding text
file? There's a simple way using the readr package. Using this
package, you can store the content of a whole file as a
single string. I haven't used it... but if you do choose this way, you
should investigate how it stores / mangages end-of-lines.
#install.packages(readr)
library(readr)
temp <- read_file('file.txt')
You can then process the string that is contained in the temp variable
as you wish to.
