help loading files into R for koRpus analysis
You may get a helpful response, but if not, I'd suggest posting code you have to read one file. Then lots of people could likely show you how to modify it to read all 4000 files. Duncan Murdoch

Hello all, I need some help with loading text-file data into R for analysis with packages like koRpus. The problem I am facing is getting R to recognize a folder full of Word files (about 4,000) as data which I can then make koRpus perform analyses like Coleman-Liau indexing. If at all possible, I prefer to make this work with Word files. The key problem is the struggle to cause R to recognize the text (Word) files in bulk (that is, all at the same time) so that koRpus can do its thing with those files. My attempts to make this work have all been in vain, but I know that packages like koRpus would be limited in usefulness if there were no way to get the package to do its work on a large collection of files all at once. I hope this problem will make sense to someone, and that there is a tenable solution to it. Thanks, Gordon [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
