as_text

parameters passed to <a rd-options="" href="/link/readLines?package=sys&version=3.2" data-mini-rdoc="sys::readLines">readLines</a> such as <code>encoding</code> or <code>n</code>

Parses a raw vector as lines of text. This is similar to <a rd-options="" href="/link/charToRaw?package=sys&version=3.2" data-mini-rdoc="sys::charToRaw">charToRaw</a> but
splits output by (platform specific) linebreaks and allows for marking
output with a given encoding.

Drop-in replacements for the base system2() function with fine control
and consistent behavior across platforms. Supports clean interruption, timeout,
background tasks, and streaming STDIN / STDOUT / STDERR over binary or text
connections. Arguments on Windows automatically get encoded and quoted to work
on different locales.
