I am running into a problem with allocating these files to a list as
they are read in through a for loop. I know I am probably doing
something wrong, but I can't figure out what. I know this is not
reproducible. I am ending up with a data frame of the very last file
to be read in. I know it is in the indexing, but I can't wrap my head
around it.
thanks for all of the help,

#level logger read in
read.ll <- function(path){
library(chron)
library(zoo)
list.of.files <- list.files(path)
length.files <- length(list.of.files)
for(i in 1:length.files){
df <- list()
move the above line to BEFORE the loop and you should be good to go.
HTH,
Chuck
df[[i]] <- read.table(paste(sep="/", path, list.of.files[i]), skip=45)
length.1 <- length(df[[i]][,1])
length.2 <- length(df[[i]][,1])-1
df[[i]] <- df[[i]][-c(length.1, length.2),]
df[[i]] <- data.frame(chron(as.character(df[[i]][,1]),
as.character(df[[i]][,2]), format=c(dates="Y/m/d", times="H:M:S")),
as.numeric(df[[i]][,3]), as.numeric(df[[i]][,4]),
as.factor(list.of.files[[i]]))
}
}

Let's not spend our time and resources thinking about things that are
so little or so large that all they really do for us is puff us up and
make us feel like gods. We are mammals, and have not exhausted the
annoying little problems of being mammals.
