I've had a very long file written out by R with write.table, with fields of time values, converted from POSIXlt as.numeric. Among 2.5 million values, very few had 6 trailing zeroes, and those were output in scientific notation as in the subject. Is this the default behavior for long integers, and how can it be turned off (with all digits for any integer field in write.table)? This is important to interoperate with other languages through such text dumps, as some do not expect scientific notation for integers, only for floats.

Cheers,
Alexy
