<p>The list to convert.  List must contained named formats.</p>

<p>The <code>as.fcat.list</code> function converts a list of formats
to a format catalog.  Items in the list must be named.</p>

Contains a set of functions that can be used to apply
formats to data frames or vectors.  The package aims to provide to
functionality similar to that of SAS<c2><ae> formats. Formats are assigned to
the format attribute on data frame columns.  Then when the fdata()
function is called, a new data frame is created with the column data
formatted as specified.  The package also contains a value() function
to create a user-defined format, similar to a SAS<c2><ae> user-defined format.
