Or, better, use header=FALSE, skip=1 and the col.names arg of read.table().
My solution is reading the files without the headers (skip = 1) and
seperately reading the headers with scan (scan("myfile.CSV", what =
"character", sep = "\t", nlines = 1). After throwing out the first two
columns it should be possible to assign the scanned colnames to the
data.frame colnames.
Yes, but if you read the header first you can set the col.names via the
arg to read.table().
