If Files is a character vector containing the filenames then this
creates a list witih one componet per RData file. The list names will
be the file names. Each component is itself a list containing the
objects in that file:
L <- sapply(Files, function(x) mget(load(x)), simplify = FALSE)
(If it is known that each RData file contains only a single object
then mget could be replaced with get in which case each component of L
would be the object in the respective file. In that case you will
lose the object names but as you indicated they are all the same that
likely won' t matter.)
