title: Reading a tab separated file in R
body: <p>I'm trying to read a file in R but the fourth record appears as a new line (see attached). After the third line, there's no tab, just two spaces. I'm using this code: </p>
  
  <pre><code>df = read.delim("text.txt", header = FALSE, stringsAsFactors = FALSE, quote = "")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>UPDATE: the third line has "¬" at the end.</p>
