Read in .xrdml data within a complex array

I'm trying to read several files of type ".xrdml" and combine them into a single dataframe with an intuitive label. The problem is that this file type has a large metadata.

I've tried the following

Required package

library(rxylib)

Things i tried

temp = list.files(pattern="*.xrdml")
xyz<-do.call(rbind,sapply(temp, read_xyData,verbose = TRUE,metaData = FALSE))

i ended up with a list, i can call each member of the list using for example xyz[[2]]

          2Theta    V2
   [1,]  4.006565  3496
   [2,]  4.019695  3417
   [3,]  4.032826  3520
   [4,]  4.045956  3516
   [5,]  4.059086  3480
   [6,]  4.072217  3343
   [7,]  4.085347  3466
   [8,]  4.098477  3552
   [9,]  4.111607  3425
  [10,]  4.124738  3384

if i try to flatten the list by using the unlist function, then the result becomes messy

what i will like to do is to read in all the files and combine them by column, each file has first column in common i.e 2Theta . i will also like to use the unique part of each file title to label V2

my files have titles like "BBHD-FASS_4-70_step01_40s_LM 11_5.xrdml". what i hope to be able to do at the end is to have a dataframe similar to the sample below

2Theta   LM 6-26  LM 6-27  LM 6-28 LM 4-10 LM 4-11 LM 4-12

4.177259    3357    3295    3519    3357    3295    3519
4.190389    3254    3372    3450    3254    3372    3450

Here are samples of my files sample files

Sadly, i've spent so much time already trying several things which didn't work.

I'll be very grateful for any help or guidance i can get on how to approach this problem.

To get to the data you need to find the correct position in the list of data that is returned by read_xyData. You can do this by looking at str(lst) below. To get to the data use ...$dataset[[1]]$data_block. (there may be extractor functions in the package but I have not checked)

unzip(temp, exdir=xdir<-tempdir())  

nms <- list.files(xdir, pattern="xrdml", full.names=TRUE)
# grab the names to names columns later
cnms <- gsub(".*(LM \\w+).*$", "\\1", basename(nms))


library(rxylib)

# loop through files to read in
lst <- lapply(nms, read_xyData, verbose = TRUE, metaData = FALSE)

# grab the data
dats <- lapply(lst, function(x) x$dataset[[1]]$data_block)

# rename second column
dats <- lapply(seq_along(dats), function(x) {
                          colnames(dats[[x]])[2] <- cnms[x] ; dats[[x]]})

# merge
alldat <- Reduce(function(...) merge(..., by="2Theta"), dats)
