Read Microsoft Excel supplements into a data frame

1	read.xls2(file, sheet = 1, skip = 0, ...)

`file`	path to file
`sheet`	number of sheet
`skip`	rows to skip
`...`	other options passed to `guessTable`

Reads an Excel file using read.xls from the gdata package and then uses guessTable to reformat. Some extra code was added to the perl function xls2csv.pl within gdata to add carets before superscripts. This change should be included in future version of pmcXML
