Read an MTrackJ Data File (.mdf)

Description

Reads an MTrackJ Data File (.mdf) file in a data.frame.

Usage

read.mdf(
  file,
  drop.Z = F,
  include.point.numbers = FALSE,
  include.channel = F,
  generate.unique.ids = F,
  text,
  fileEncoding = ""
)

Arguments

file	MTrackJ Data File (.mdf) file with tracking data.
drop.Z	drop z-coordinate (for 2D data)
include.point.numbers	include the point numbers in the mdf file (NB these can be different from the time/frame points)
include.channel	include channel information
generate.unique.ids	combine cluster and id columns to get unique ids
text	character string: if file is not supplied and this is, then data are read from the value of text via a text connection. Notice that a literal string can be used to include (small) data sets within R code.
fileEncoding	character string: if non-empty declares the encoding to be used on a file (not a connection) so the character data can be re-encoded as they are written. See base::file().
