[R] Hyper-elegant code to get a text file, transpose it, and write it

Of course this is a trivial task: text.in <- readLines(file.in) matrix.in <- strsplit(text.in, "[ \t]+") # matrix.out <- transpose matrix.in # loop over the lines of matrix.out creating text.out writeLines(text.out, file.out) What is the _most elegant_ way to write the transposition of matrix.in
