Greetings,I am not familiar with processing text in R. Can someone tell me how toread each line of words as separate elements in a list? FE, I would like to turn: word1 word2 word3 word2 word4into a list of length two with three character elements in the first list and two elements in the second. I know that this should be easy, but I am alittle confused by the text functions.
> txt <- textConnection("word1 word2 word3
+ word2 word4")

[[1]]
[1] "word1" "word2" "word3"
[[2]]
[1] "word2" "word4"
