hi
I think this already a closed topic since you figure it out yourself.
but you can always try to fetch data from Google docs (first make the
spreadsheet public) and then writing this snippet:
library(RCurl)
u="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?hl=en_US&hl=en_US&key=0As6HUAxhy0Q7dDB0bjh4T2
Just for the record, you don't need to manually find the
URL to which your are being redirected by using the followlocation
option in any of the RCurl functions:
tt =
getURLContent("https://sites.google.com/site/jrkrideau/home/general-stores/duplicates.csv";,
followlocatio

I had not realised there was something like rawToChar(). Amazing what R does.

Thank, good to know. It's only in the examples of ..., but is looks like a
parameter important enough to be included in the docs of getBinaryURL.
Digging t
With the ssl.verifypeer = FALSE argument it works:
x = getBinaryURL(dd, ssl.verifypeer = FALSE)

?read.table says
‘file’ can also be a complete URL.
This is implemented by url(): see the section on URLs on its help
page. You haven't followed the posting guide and told us your OS, and
what the section says does depend on the OS.

The only difference I see is the http vs https, perhaps you require a sort
of auth to access that file.

Here John,
from the manual
URLs
A note on file:// URLs. The most general form (from RFC1738) is
file://host/path/to/file, but R only accepts the form with an empty host
field referring to the local machine. This is then file:///path/to/file,
where path/to/file is relative to /. So although the
https
your second link is an https
that's not supported as I recall.
