There is a function that can be used to convert data structures such as

a data frame into a different format that allows the data to be sent to the
mailing list. The structure that is created can be used to easily
reconstruct the data structure. Unfortunately, I don't remember the
function that is called on the data structure. Can someone remind me?

Thank you
John
