The Mac does not have an application called notepad, so you can't "save a
text in [your] notepad". However, the Mac has TextEdit, and if you save
any file with the ".txt" suffix it will open in TextEdit when you
double-click on it in a Finder window (outside R, that is).
You could even, from inside R, type
system('open name.txt')
and it will open the file in TextEdit, provided that the file is in what R
considers to be your working directory.
To save a file from within R, start by viewing the help pages for
write.table
sink
cat
depending on what you want to save and how you want it structured in the
file.
