I can't think of anything that is already built in.

But you can always:

read.as.matrix <- function(...) as.matrix(read.delim(...))

and now you get one step only ;-)

read.delim gives me a data.frame. Is there a function that can return
the result in a matrix rather than data.frame?

m <- as.matrix(read.delim(..))

I knew this approach. But this takes an extra step. Is there a command
that read a file directly into a matrix?
