R: sink() split table in some lines

Question

I have a very very big table of correlation values that i would like to save in a file.

That actually do:

sink("/to/path/file.csv")
cor(total)
sink()

that writes something like in the file:

               a          b             c            d
r             0.635391844  0.316249555    0.715476998  0.138705124

                e              f            g                       h  
a          -0.0671507332 -0.054941719 -0.081309861                 NA
a          -0.0088907191 -0.005160978 -0.024992979                 NA
a          -0.0136534885 -0.037814849 -0.050713280                 NA
a          -0.0045957748 -0.022862111 -0.044030999                 NA
a          -0.0097176798 -0.046629114 -0.106266022                 NA

i would like that columns a,c,d,f,g,h ... where in the same line. I have try also sink("path", split = T), but it doesn't work,

Suggestions?

Thanks.

Something like this for example:

m <- cbind(read.csv("/to/path/file.csv", cor(total))
write.csv(m,"/to/path/file.csv")
