[R] Reconfiguring wide frame to long frame

[Gabor Grothendieck]

Sorry, in looking at this again my previous code did not give the
same ordering you indicated.  Instead using the same DF try
this:

rbind(as.matrix(DF[,1:2]), as.matrix(DF[,3:4]))

Both this and the last piece of code produce matrices so
use as.data.frame if you want a data frame.
