Please do show us the courtesy of following the posting guide, and make
sure you use a current version of R. R 2.7.2 and 2.8.0 beta do not do
this, and you were asked to update *before* posting.
[My guess is that you are using the long-obsolete 2.7.0.]

Dear all,
I have the following dataset:
# HIT or acc, UCSC genome, chromosome, strand, start, end, species name
HIT000000001 hg18 chr8 + 1759549 1894206 Human
HIT000000005 hg18 chr11 - 8593662 8636959 Human
HIT000000007 hg18 chr5 + 31675274 32146794 Human
HIT000000011 hg18 chr5 + 79739648 79810715 Human
(also downloadable at http://dpaste.com/82688/plain/ )
However with the following command:
source <- read.table("clipboard")
source
V1 V2 V3 V4 V5 V6 V7
1 HIT000000001 hg18 chr8 0 1759549 1894206 Human
2 HIT000000005 hg18 chr11 0 8593662 8636959 Human
3 HIT000000007 hg18 chr5 0 31675274 32146794 Human
4 HIT000000011 hg18 chr5 0 79739648 79810715 Human
Note that the V4 column read.table fail to capture the PLUS/MINUS sign,
it gives 0 instead.
Is there a way I can enable read.table to recognize those signs?
