read.exp?

Dear Colleagues,

 	The foreign library, ever-exceptionally useful, does not seem able
to deal with this ancient SPSS ascii portable file I have with extension
'.exp'.

 	If anybody has familiarity with this filetype and could point me
towards an R function that would allow me to get the data from this file, I
would be much obliged! Or, even knowledge of the specification for these
filetypes would be helpful, and I'll try my own hand at writing the import
function.

Cordially,
Adam Kramer
