How about

txt <- paste(rep("this is a nice text with nice characters", 3), "But this is not", collapse=" ")

library(stringr)
txt.vec <-str_split(txt, "[^[:alnum:]_]+")[[1]] 
	#vector of all the words in their original sequence

tapply(1:length(txt.vec), txt.vec, c)
	#Returns a list of vectors of locations of each word, sorted alphabetically
