Does anyone know how to read SPSS .por (ie Portable) files? The foreign

Not so. ?read.spss says
'read.spss' reads a file stored by the SPSS 'save' or 'export'
commands.
It says nothing about extensions, but it seems .por is commonly used in
the 'export' SPSS command, and there is an example in the test suite of
the foreign package.
Did you actually try it? (If so, you failed to report the error message
you got.)
Thanks,
