copydat lets you copy a data.frame to the clipboard using the ...
... RStudio GUI. Just highlight (in your source console) the name of the data.frame you want to copy. (Examples: iris; mtcars). Click Addins > Copy data, and you're done.
... R console. Like this: mtcars %>% Copy(dat2tsv) # or dat2rtf. Paste away!
Supported formats:
- TSV (to paste into a spreadsheet)
- RTF (to paste into a document or an email)
It's a work in progress. TODO:
- Support for platforms other than OS X. Just submit a pull request re:
clipboard(). Easy! :-D - Easy attribution/provenance (
comment()--> table caption?) - More formats
Thanks to @Rstudio and @kevinushey for RStudio Addins and the great examples. And thanks to @schaffman5 for the rtf package!
