Hi all-

I have a lot of small (xml) data files that are saved by classification in directories named in accordance with the classification. I would like to zip up these directories and include the zipped file as part of the data in a package (which I know how to do.)

Are there R functions for dealing with zipped files as a data type?

Thanks for any suggestions.

base::connections       Functions to Manipulate Connections
base::environment variables
                        Environment Variables
base::memCompress       In-memory Compression and Decompression
utils::unzip            Extract or List Zip Archives
utils::zip.file.extract
                        Extract File from a Zip Archive
utils::win.version      Auxiliary Functions for the Windows Port


which seems to provide some leads
