Hi Erich,
Thanks for the suggestion. The "write_clip" solution works as
intended.
I wanted to raise a question regarding the "write.table"
function behaviour in R 4.2.0 because I used this solution extensively in
my hybrid Excel/R tools to return results. I expected stable behaviour from
a function from "utils".
While on the topic - can someone please confirm this bug?
Regards,
Sergiy
