Dear R users,

I am not good in R-language programming. So, i need your help.

I want to convert my lower-triangle value of symmetry matrix into a vector with their row and column name.
I found a function called "sm2vec" in "corpcor" package but it give only a vector of values but not row and column names. But i also want ROW and COLUMN name together with their corresponding values.

To make more clear, 
For example: Suppose i have a symmetric matrix with lower-triangle value with 5 variables (eg. a - e). But in real, i have many variables.

  a b c d e 
a  - - - - - 
b -0.44145  - - -  - 
c -0.67922 0.232548  - -  - 
d 0.114012 0.186583 0.244655  -  - 
e -0.031 -0.35098 -0.16327 -0.34573  - 

Now, I want to convert above table into the following format. So, if some one can tell what kind of R code does this, it will be great help. 

row name column name value 
b a -0.44145 
c a -0.67922 
d a 0.114012 
e a -0.031 
c b 0.232548 
d b 0.186583 
e b -0.35098 
d c 0.244655 
e c -0.16327 
e d -0.34573 

If some one can help me, it will be great for me. 

Thanks in advance for your help.
