toClipboard: Copy a data.frame to clipboard for pasting into Excel

In West-End-Statistics/r-library-vakdr: Miscellanious helper functions

Description

This function wraps around write.table to push a data frame to clipboard. It is pipable. Please note that large data.frames will cause the clipboard to crash.

Usage

toClipboard(
  x,
  file = "clipboard",
  sep = "\t",
  row.names = FALSE,
  na = "",
  ...
)

Arguments

x	the object to be written, preferably a matrix or data frame. If not, it is attempted to coerce x to a data frame.
file	either a character string naming a file or a connection open for writing. "" indicates output to the console.
sep	the field separator string. Values within each row of x are separated by this string.
row.names	either a logical value indicating whether the row names of x are to be written along with x, or a character vector of row names to be written.
na	the string to use for missing values in the data.
