You can then read.table on a textConnection.

Dear Rxperts,
I have a varaibles data file that looks like this
p(1) 10
p(1) 3
p(1) 4
p(2) 20
p(2) 30
p(2) 40
p(3) 4
p(3) 1
p(1) 2
I cannot process these data with R because it does not like the
parentheses.
How can I get these to look like:
p1 10
p1 3
p1 4
p2 20
p2 30
p2 40
p3 4
p3 1
p3 2
The data is in a tab delimited text file and I want to get it into a
data.frame().
Many thanks in advance.
