stri_write_lines: Write Text Lines to a Text File

Description

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

Usage

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

Value

This function returns nothing noteworthy.

Arguments

str

character vector with data to write

con

name of the output file or a connection object (opened in the binary mode)

encoding

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

sep

newline separator

fname

deprecated alias of con

Author

Details

It is a substitute for the R writeLines function, with the ability to easily re-encode the output.

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