[R] How to read in this data format?

[Bart Joosen]

Hi,

I recieved an ascii file, containing following information:

$$ Experiment Number:
$$ Associated Data:

FUNCTION 1

Scan		1
Retention Time	0.017

399.8112	184
399.8742	0
399.9372	152
....

Scan		2
Retention Time	0.021

399.8112	181
399.8742	1
399.9372	153
.....


I would like to import this data in R into a dataframe, where there is a 
column time, the first numbers as column names, and the second numbers as 
data in the dataframe:

Time	399.8112	399.8742	399.9372
0.017	184	0	152
0.021	181	1	153

I did take a look at the read.table, read.delim, scan, ... But I 've no idea 
about how to solve this problem.

Anyone?


Thanks

Bart
