R help - May 2012 - save to Rdata file and to txt

Dear all,
I am using the 


save(moransI,file=saveString) to save a variable called moransI to a file.
This works well but unfortunately I have to open R every time I want to look to
the contents.

Would it be also possible to have a second line that saves the contents of the
moransI variable in a normal txt file?
The ideal is inside the txt file to get what you see in R's console when you
print the moransI variable.
So something like that

moransI
[[1]]
[1] "Moran.I.First"

[[2]]
[[2]]$observed
[1] 0.06988288

[[2]]$expected
[1] -0.03225806

[[2]]$sd
[1] 0.02513276

[[2]]$p.value
[1] 4.822722e-05



Cheers
Alex
