Exporting all packages from R / Rstudio etc using an R data dump file:
ip <- as.data.frame(installed.packages())
dump("ip","ip.Rdmpd")
From here send the dump file to the new computer and read into R or Rstudio etc, whatever your preference is and then wait will all packages download and install from CRAN:
setwd("/path/to/dumpfile")
source("ip.Rdmpd")
install.packages(ip$Package)

2SO is a Q/A site. So in future, please post questions in the questions section, while answers in the answer section- not both in the same place. – David Arenburg Jan 05 '17 at 15:37
