How is the data organized?  You could 'linearize' the data (e.g., column
order) and supply the dimensions of the data that you would apply after the
data was read in.

If you had three dimensions and you separated each 2D page with a blank
line, you again could reconstruct the data.  If you have the ability to
change the program doing the output, then look at the output of 'dput' for a
multidimensional object and create a text string that looks like that and
'source' it in.
