Thanks so much Jim,
It works. However how come the "\n" was not removed.
Meaning when I do:
print (x$V3)
it gives something like this:
__OUTPUT__
[1] discoidin domain receptor tyrosine kinase 1
[2] replication factor C (activator 1) 2, 40kDa
[3] heat shock 70kDa protein 6 (HSP70B')
__END__
Note the spacing between the entries. I expect something like:
[1] discoidin domain receptor tyrosine kinase 1
[2] replication factor C (activator 1) 2, 40kDa
[3] heat shock 70kDa protein 6 (HSP70B')
__END__
Do you have any idea how to fix this?
