I'm importing a lot of text tables of data (from Latent Gold) that includes hashes in some of the column names ("Cluster#1", "Cluster#2", etc.). Is there an easy way to strip the offending hashes out before pushing the text into a table or data frame? I thought I'd use gsub, e.g., but can't figure out how to read in a text file without reading it into a table or data frame (which would be ill structured, given the hashes). I could do it in another scripting language or shell script, but would like to try to do it in R.
