[R] Export summary from regression output

[PIKAL Petr]

Hi

section Arguments of write.table help page clearly says

x the object to be written, preferably a matrix or data frame. If not, it is attempted to coerce x to a data frame.

summary object from lm is highly structured list an AFAIK can not be easily coerced to data frame. So either copy console output to some word processing software by Ctrl-C Ctrl-V (in Windows environment) or dissect summary output to pieces which can be coerced to data frames and save it one by one by any write.* function.

Regards
Petr
