fid file

The fid file stores the intensity/count values as 4-byte integers.

For a first investigation you could use the unix commandline tool od:

od -An -i -v -w4 fid | less

To import the fid file into R:

con <- file("fid", "rb")
intensity <- readBin(con, integer(), n=file.info("fid")$size/4, size=4)
close(con)
