Aren't they plain text files? Use readLines and get it into a character vector. Barry
Alejandro, reading, yes, but interpreting (which is how I understand your question), no. Translating the flow of AML to R would be easy, although you would probably want to do things differently in R (fewer loops). Another matter is whether R has functions equivalent to those of ArcInfo. Certainly not all of them, but I think that the functions in the 'raster' package are roughly equivalent to those in the ArcInfo 'grid' module.
