export: Export concordances as tab-separated files

In hartmast/concordances: A Tool for Reading Corpus Export Files Into R

Export concordances as tab-separated files

Description

This function - a convenient wrapper for write.table - exports R objects as tab-separated files (UTF-8 by default), which is usually the ideal format for corpus concordances.

Usage

export(x, filename, sep = "\t", row.names = F,
  fileEncoding = "UTF-8", extension = "tsv", quote = F, ...)

Arguments

x	The name of the object to be exported.
filename	Path to the export file. By default, the file is named like the object and saved in the current working directory.
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. Dafault is FALSE (i.e. no row names)
fileEncoding	Intended encoding of the export file
extension	File extension. Default is tsv. Ignored if a filename / file path is specified.
quote	a logical value (TRUE or FALSE) or a numeric vector. If TRUE, any character or factor columns will be surrounded by double quotes. If a numeric vector, its elements are taken as the indices of columns to quote. In both cases, row and column names are quoted if they are written. If FALSE (the default), nothing is quoted.
...	additional arguments to be passed on to write.table.

Value

A file containing a tab-separated concordance sheet.
