Dear R-list

This is just message to inform that the there is an issue with write.fwf in the 
gdata library (from version 2.5.0 on). It does not seem to accept further 
arguments to write.table like "eol" as the help file indicates as it stops when 
executing tmp <- lapply(x, format.info, ...). 
Great package though - I use it a lot except for this function :)
See example below.

> require(gdata)
> saveto <- tempfile(pattern = "test.txt", tmpdir = tempdir()) 
> write.fwf(x = data.frame(a=1:length(LETTERS), b=LETTERS), file=saveto, 
> eol="\r\n")
Error in FUN(X[[1L]], ...) : unused argument(s) (eol = "\r\n")
> sessionInfo()
