[jira] [Created] (ARROW-18218) [R] read_fwf_arrow

Lucas Mation created ARROW-18218:
------------------------------------

             Summary: [R] read_fwf_arrow
                 Key: ARROW-18218
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-18218
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Lucas Mation


It would be great if `arrow` provided a function to read fixed-width file (FWF) formats. 

I have asked for help with this in two SO posts ([here|http://example.com]https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74280697/dplyr-way-to-break-variable-into-multiple-columns-acording-to-layout-dictionar/74281380?noredirect=1#comment131145927_74281380 and [here|http://example.com]https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74276222/r-arrow-how-to-read-fwf-format-in-r-using-arrow/74279929#74279929), but have not had much success so far.
