Hello,

I have a table that was constructed in a wrong way (dput data on bottom -
wrong data-frame):

    Local   Mês Dia Colonia     X6h     X7h     X8h     X9h    X10h    X11h
   X12h    X13h    X14h    X15h    X16h    X17h

1.51851 1.41497 1.38021 1.66276 1.46240 1.53148 1.66276


I have to create a new column (hour) and transpose just the last 12
columns, and first four columns have to be copied 12 time, like this (dput
data on bottom - correct data-frame):

     Local   Mês Dia Colonia Hora        N
1  Conceição Junho   1       3   6h 2.161370
2  Conceição Junho   1       3   7h 2.204120
3  Conceição Junho   1       3   8h 2.089910
4  Conceição Junho   1       3   9h 1.724280
5  Conceição Junho   1       3  10h 1.698970
6  Conceição Junho   1       3  11h 1.623250
7  Conceição Junho   1       3  12h 1.447160
8  Conceição Junho   1       3  13h 1.518510
9  Conceição Junho   1       3  14h 1.431360
10 Conceição Junho   1       3  15h 1.477120
11 Conceição Junho   1       3  16h 1.518510
12 Conceição Junho   1       3  17h 1.041390
13 Conceição Junho   2       3   6h 2.465383

Some one could give me some ideas? I don't even know how to start...

Thanks in advanced,
