It occurs to me that Christos' method could be made more flexible by
using rle(). That is, before collapsing the digits, you have something
like
>foo
[1] 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0
Then rle(foo) will show you where the boring lead-zeros end, and you can
use that value to set the truncation ---- rather than a fixed [1:17] as
below.

This was what I was looking for to solve the truncate to 17 digits.
Thanks a lot.
Now my output looks like this:
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ,0
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 ,0.0998004
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 ,0.1996008
