[R] Restoring an S object that was data-dumped

[Spencer Graves]

      Have you tried 'help.search("data.restore")' or the "posting 
guide" at "http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html"?  I believe the 
object of your desires (at least for this request) is in 
"library(foreign)". 

      hope this helps.
