[R] Matlab import

Hallo,

I have imported this package, too. And tried your commands with the new txt-file as mentioned in my last mail to the mailing list. 

I get the following error command:
mats = readMat("Z:/Software/R-Programme/test.dat")
Error in if (version == 256) { : Argument hat Länge 0
Zusätzlich: Warning message:
Unknown endian: . Will assume Bigendian. in: readMat5Header(this, firstFourBytes = firstFourBytes) 

What did I wrong? Please check my txt-file which was constructed with the matlab command "save('test.dat','matrixM','-ascii')"

Thanks, Corinna
