[R] Writing dataframes to SAS XPT format

[Dennis Fisher]

Colleagues,

On occasion, I need to output an R dataframe to a file in SAS XPT format.  Although the foreign package supports reading of XPT files and writing to a format that SAS can read, it does not support writing to XPT format (confirmed with Thomas Lumley, the author of write.foreign).

Has anyone developed such a function?  If so, would you be willing to share it?  Better yet, post it to CRAN so that it is available to all users.
