Hi Sergiy,

I can confirm this. I don't find any bug report related with "clipboard" on bugzilla. I will open a bug report.

I confirm this is a bug in the connections code implementation of "clipboard". R 4.2 has a new version which uses Unicode and unfortunately with this bug which has not been discovered before release. Now fixed in R-devel and R-patched, so will be fixed in R 4.2.1.

The bug only affects Windows, only writing to clipboard in subsequent operations, and only the connections code.

There is also clipboard support in base R in the utils package, e.g. writeClipboard(), which is not affected.

However, I don't see how it would easily solve the problem at hand. One could write to a file, then read it, and then pass it to writeClipboard, but once we have the file, we can also read it directly.

Sorry for the inconvenience,
Tomas


Best,
Jinsong

Hi Erich,
Thanks for the suggestion. The "write_clip" solution works as intended.
I wanted to raise a question regarding the "write.table"
function behaviour in R 4.2.0 because I used this solution extensively in my hybrid Excel/R tools to return results. I expected stable behaviour from
a function from "utils".
While on the topic - can someone please confirm this bug?
Regards,
Sergiy

Die you try clipr::write_clip as an alternative?

I used write.table(mat, "clipboard-1024", sep="\t", row.names=FALSE) to
copy from R to Excel in previous versions. After updating to 4.2.0 it
copies column names only to clipboard. Win 10 64 bit. Any ideas on how to
fix it? Try this:

mat = matrix(0, 2, 3)
write.table(mat, "clipboard-1024", sep="\t", row.names=FALSE)
