[R] Problem (Bug?) with readLines on Suze

[Marc Mamin]

Hello,

I called readLines on  Suze 9.0 with a directory as parameter instead of a file.
R freezed for a very long time; this morning I could read following error message:

Error in readLines(paste("/home/",foo,"/",sep=""))  :  cannot allocate buffer in readLines


under W2K I get a more logical error ("cannot open file")


(I'm still using R 1.8.1)

cheers,

Marc
