as a
removeWord dictionary in tm_map
Hi again
I've now had the chance to try this out, and using scan() doesn't seem
to work either.
This is what I used:
1) I generated a plain text file called stopDict.txt. This file is of
the format: "a, bunch, of, words, to, use"
2) I
You seem to be conflating the data input operation with your data processing.
You need to stop and examine the in-memory representation of your data
{"userStopList"), and compare it with the expectations of your data processing
operation ("tm_map"). Then adjust your input data by choosing a diff

Thanks Jim.
I thought that I was passing a vector, not realising I had converted
this to a list object.
I haven't come across the scan() function so far, so this is good to know.
Good explanation - I'll give this a go when I can get back to that piece
of work later today.
Thanks again.
Re
The 'read.table' was creating a data.frame (not a vector) and applying
'c' to it converted it to a list. You should alway look at the object
you are creating. You probably want to use 'scan'.

Hi list
Although this query applies specifically to the tm package, perhaps it's
something that others might be able to lend a thought to.
Using tm to do some initial text mining, I want to include an external
(to R) generated dictionary of words that I want removed from the corpus.
