[R] write.csv with append = TRUE

[R. Michael Weylandt]

write.table() should append just fine. write.csv() doesn't append I'm
told because there's no guarantee it matches the column headings of
the original file. That said, write.table(..., append = TRUE, sep =
",") is a pretty good approximation.

Cheers,
Michael
