Question: would it be better if the contents list of the unzip() function
returned the filenames as character rather than factor since they are
probably unique strings?
That is what the help page says it does, so this is bug -- now corrected
in R-patched (for one of the methods, only).
tmp <- unzip(fnam, list=TRUE)
str(tmp)
'data.frame': 31 obs. of 3 variables:
$ Name : Factor w/ 31 levels "fred1.csv",..: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ...
$ Length: num 424486 2664277 219798 442383 480857 ...

"2012-12-03 04:45:00" "2012-12-04 03:52:00" ...
thanks,
