stri_write_lines: [DRAFT API] Write Text Lines to a Text File

Description

Writes a text file such that each element of a given character vector becomes a separate text line.

[THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL FUNCTION]

Usage

stri_write_lines(str, fname, encoding = "UTF-8",
  sep = ifelse(.Platform$OS.type == "windows", "\r\n", "\n"))

Arguments

str

character vector

fname

file name

encoding

output encoding, NULL or "" for the current default one

sep

newline separator

Value

This function does not return anything interesting

Details

It is a substitute for the R writeLines function, with the ability to re-encode output without any strange function calls.

Note that we suggest using the UTF-8 encoding for all text files: thus, it is the default one for the output.
