[R] SF-8 (not 36) questionnaire scoring for R?

[Joshua Wiley]

If it's not possible to use their particular algorithms, does anyone
think it would be helpful/practical to try to write a general scoring
system?  I imagine a function with arguments for column names, a list
where each element is a vector that indicates the numbers that
correspond to various subscales, an argument that could handle any
reverse scoring, etc.

I am willing to have a go at this if people think it would be
worthwhile (read: if someone wiser than me thinks it is not a waste of
time).
