write.taf: Write TAF Table to File

Description

Write a TAF table to a file.

Usage

write.taf(x, file = NULL, dir = NULL, quote = FALSE, row.names = FALSE,
  fileEncoding = "UTF-8", underscore = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x: a data frame in TAF format.
file: a filename.
dir: an optional directory name.
quote: whether to quote strings.
row.names: whether to include row names.
fileEncoding: character encoding for output file.
underscore: whether automatically generated filenames (when file = NULL) should use underscore separators instead of dots.
...: passed to write.csv.

Details

Alternatively, x can be a list of data frames or a string vector of object names, to write many tables in one call. The resulting files are named automatically, similar to file = NULL.

The default value file = NULL uses the name of x as a filename, so a data frame called survey.uk will be written to a file called survey_uk.csv (when underscore = TRUE) or survey.uk.csv (when underscore = FALSE).

The special value file = "" prints the data frame in the console, similar to write.csv.
