[Rd] read.table produces extra rows when file contains extra columns on (PR#9128)

Reading the following delimited file with read.csv() or read.table() file1: X,Y 1,2 2,4 3,6 4,8 5,10,, 6,12 produces a data.frame with 7 rows instead of 6 because the two extra values on line 6 of the file are pushed into a new row of the data.frame. In other words, the extra columns on line 6

Thanks for the reply. Apologies for checking only R patched rather than R-devel. I guess that this means that someone must have a use for allowEscapes=TRUE when read reading a file in table format into a data frame. It is hard to imagine. Gordon At 04:59 PM 27/07/2005, Prof Brian Ripley wrote
