What's the preferred method for avoiding `unexpected' bits of scientific
notation in write.table() output? I've found several inelegant workarounds,
but I'm sure I'm overlooking an obvious answer
A simple example.. . 
> df_data.frame(df=95000+1000*0:10); df 
       df
1   95000
2   96000
3   97000
4   98000
5   99000
6  100000
7  101000
8  102000
9  103000
10 104000
11 105000
> write.table(df,'c:\\df.txt',quote=F,sep='\t',row.names=F,col.names=F)
.. . creates a file with contents .. . 
95000
96000
97000
98000
99000
1e+05
101000
102000
103000
104000
105000
