Manage and manipulate large collections of R objects stored as
tape-like files
Description
Storing huge data in RData format causes problems because
of the necessity to load the whole file to the memory in order
to access and manipulate objects inside such file; rtape is a
simple solution to this problem. The package contains several
wrappers of R built-in serialize/unserialize mechanism allowing
user to quickly append objects to a tape-like file and later
iterate over them requiring only one copy of each stored object
to reside in memory a time.
