[R] as.ffdf.data.frame now breaks if using pattern

[Jens Oehlschlägel]

Ramon,
for me this works

> setwd("d:/tmp")
> ffd <- as.ffdf(d, col_args=list(pattern = paste(getwd(), "/fftmp", sep = "")))
> filename(ffd)
$x
[1] "d:/tmp/fftmp35c34861.ff"

$y
[1] "d:/tmp/fftmp5be946bb.ff"

$z
[1] "d:/tmp/fftmp26c49ce.ff"

Jens
