[R] importing S-Plus data files

[Demiurg [at Yahoo]]

I have some data in the Linux version of S-Plus, which I can not use
anymore. The program is just broken and won't run. I'm trying to
find a way to import that data to either Windows version of S-Plus
(which I have running on my other machine) or R (Linux or Windows,
it doesn't matter).

Unfortunately, nothing seems to work.
Windows S-Plus seem to ignore files from Linux .Data directory
and non of the import ruotines available in R can handle my data.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
