[R] Transferring results from R to MS Word

[Gabor Grothendieck]

Seems there is a bug in one of the HTML methods in that digits=
either does not get passed or used in certain cases.  It does seem
that the HTML.data.frame method is not affected so this would
be a workaround:

HTML2clip(as.data.frame(mean(attitude)), digits = 10)
