peek_head

print the first <code>n</code> lines
of a file.

Tools to help text files importation. It can return the
number of lines; print the first and last lines; convert encoding;
guess delimiters and file encoding. Operations are made without
reading the entire file before starting, resulting in good
performances with large files. This package provides an alternative to
a simple use of the 'head', 'tail', 'wc' and 'iconv' programs that are
not always available on machine where R is installed.
