Reading .gsheet within R
Thank you Henrik & the others that have commented. Accessing the actual online data is what I would need, but apparently this is not yet feasible? Luca Il giorno 01/dic/2012, alle ore 04:53, Henrik Bengtsson <hb at biostat.ucsf.edu> ha scritto:

Hello R-experts, I would like to know if there is a solution to read files with extension .gsheet directly into R - see http://www.fileinfo.com/extension/gsheet for more info on this file format.
AFAIK, those files (*.gsheet, *.gdoc, *.gslides) are just tiny JSON files containing references to the online/cloud resource (specifying the "url" and the "resource_id"). There are several packages on CRAN for parsing JSON files. Accessing the actual online data is a different story... My $0.02 /Henrik
Thank you,
