[R] plyr: issue with column names when converting one element list to dataframe

[Mark Heckmann]

Hadley,

thanks for the quick reply:

 > dput(l)
list(structure(c(0.182198327359618, 0.473715651135006, 0.29689366786141,
0.0471923536439665), .Dim = c(1L, 4L), .Dimnames = list("f5_9",
     c("(0.5,1.5]", "(1.5,2.5]", "(2.5,3.5]", "(3.5,4.5]"))))

Mark
