In JPSieg/MeltR: Automated fitting of RNA/DNA absorbance melting curves and fluorescence binding isotherms in R

#'Reads an ".o3a" file into R
#'
#'Reads an ".o3a" file, produced by the OLIS absorbance spectrophotometer, into a R
#'data frame. The temperature data is in the first column of the data frame.
#'The absorbance for each wavelength is stored in columns that named by the absorbance
#'in nm. Example, "x260".
#'
#'@param file Path to a single ".o3a" formatted file.
#'@return A data frame containing the data in the "information in the ".o3a" formatted file.
