Send \R Output to a File

Usage

sink(file = NULL, append = FALSE)

Arguments

file a character string naming the file to write to, or NULL to stop ``sink''ing.
append if TRUE, output will be appended to file; otherwise, it will overwrite the contents of file.

Description

Diverts all R output to file, overwriting the file unless append is TRUE.

Details

Only prompts and error messages continue to appear on the terminal.

sink() or sink(file=NULL) ends the diversion.
