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 returns nothing noteworthy.

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.
