The R "cut" command is entirely different from the UNIX "cut" command.
The latter retains selected fields in a line of text. I can do that kind
of manipulation using sub() or gsub(), but it is tedious. I assume there
is an R function that will do this, but I don't know its name. Can you
tell me?
I'm also guessing that there is a web page somewhere that will tell me how
to do a lot of common GNU/UNIX/Linux "text util" commmand-line kinds of
things in R. By that I mean by using R functions, not by making system
calls. Does anyone know of such a web page?
Thanks in advance.
Mike
