I have dose response data analyzed with the package 'drc'. 'summary(mymodel)' prints my kinetic parameters. I want that text in an ASCII text file. I want to get exactly what I would get if I copied and pasted from the terminal window.
I've read the documentation on data export to text files here: https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-data.html#Export-to-text-files write() does not work. > summary(mymodel) Model fitted: Michaelis-Menten (2 parms) Parameter estimates: Estimate Std.

Why doesn't it work the way I think it does? What documentation should I read to understand what's going on here? ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
