R: Write lines to a file

write_lines {brio} | R Documentation

## Write lines to a file

### Description

The text is converted to UTF-8 encoding before writing.

### Usage

    write_lines(text, path, eol = "\n")

### Arguments

`text` | A character vector to write
`path` | A character string giving the file path to write to.
`eol` | The end of line characters to use between lines.

### Details

The files are opened in binary mode, so they always use exactly the string given in `eol` as the line separator.

To write a file with windows line endings use `write_lines(eol = "\r\n")`

### Value

The UTF-8 encoded input text (invisibly).

### Examples

    tf <- tempfile()

    write_lines(rownames(mtcars), tf)

    # Write with Windows style line endings
    write_lines(rownames(mtcars), tf, eol = "\r\n")

    unlink(tf)
