If the file is not too large, just change the extension to '.txt' and attach it. Also include the code that you are using to read it in and a definition of the what the data is; e.g., first two byte are temperature, next four bytes are a station ID, ....
Here is an example of reading in a binary file and I know that the 'raw' output matches the bytes that are in the file: > infile <- file("test.txt", 'rb') > > input <- readBin(infile, raw(), 100) > > input [1] 50 4b 03 04 14 00 04 00 08 00 47 95 90 4a 9f 00 7a a0 99 01 00 00 7a 08 00 00 13 00 75 00 5b 43 6f [34] 6e 74 65 6e 74 5f 54 79 70 65 73 5d 2e 78 6d 6c 53 44 60 00 a4 00 00 00 00 08 00 32 fa a9 3f 63 64 [67] 60 69 11 61 60 60 30 00 62 10 f0 01 62 46 56 30 93 55 14 48 55 e8 cd 15 fe e5 cf a3 df 6c ab ed 66 [100] b1 > here is the dump: $ od -a -t x --endian=big test.txt 0000000 P K etx eot dc4 nul eot nul bs nul G nak dle J us nul 504b0304 14000400 08004795 904a9f00 0000020 z sp em soh nul nul z bs nul nul dc3 nul u nul [ C 7aa09901 00007a08 00001300 75005b43 0000040 o n t e n t _ T y p e s ] . x m 6f6e7465 6e745f54 79706573 5d2e786d Jim Holtman Data Munger Guru What is the problem that you are trying to solve?
