Is there a way to capure all, or part, of a filename and assign it to an
object. Say I wanted to read in a file tiled example.txt and then assign
the character string example (or exa or any other substring of
example for that matter), to object a. Is there a simple way to do so?
Thanks in
Check out the various help pages on string manipulation:
help.search(keyword = character, package = base)
and particularly ?sub, ?substr and ?regex

Hi Jim,
You might also want to see ?list.files() for a quick way to get the
filenames in the first place, and then you can manipulate them using
the functions Gabor suggested.
