Figured it out on my own. Basically, use the replicate command for each
line of the data.frame, then appending to a file.

Suppose I have a file with the the following structure - call the two

ABC 3
DDG 5
ABB 2
What I need to do is parse each line of the file, and then depending
on the value of count, write out the value of 'label' to a new file,
but 'count' times. In other words, take the preceding, and output
ABC
ABC
ABC
DDG
DDG
DDG
DDG
DDG
ABB
ABB
I was wondering if there was an elegant/simple way to do this? I can
do this relatively easily in perl, or awk, but am stumped by getting a
bit of R code to accomplish the same thing.
Many thanks in advance...
