[R] write.csv permissions

[R. Michael Weylandt]

Take a look at ?Sys.chmod -- I haven't used it myself, but it does
seem to be what your looking for and, in particular, the default
("777") seems to be what you want.

I tried to change the permission as a root user with chmod u+x.  Though, it says that "-rwxr--r--  1 root root     164 2012-05-27 10:18 res1.csv", when I open the file it is still read-only.  Is there any way to save the file with no restrictions on permission?  I use the R  console as a root user (sudo R).
