## Send \R Output to a File

## Usage

    sink(file = NULL)

## Arguments

`file` | a character string naming the file to write to, or `NULL` to stop ``sink''ing.

## Description

`sink(file)` diverts all R output to `file` (overwriting the file if it already exists; appending is not supported yet). Only prompts and error messages continue to appear on the terminal.

`sink()` or `sink(file=NULL)` ends the diversion.

## Examples

    sink("sink-examp.txt")
    i <- 1:10
    outer(i,i,"*")
    sink()
