This might give you a hint as to how to do it since I have no idea of
what your data looks like:
lon <- lat <- matrix(1:100, nrow=5)
output <- file('/tempxx.txt', open='w')
for (i in 1:5){
x <- cbind(lon[,i], lat[,i])
write.table(x, row.names=FALSE, col.names=FALSE, file=output)
cat('>\n', file=output)
}
close(output)
This gives a file like:
1 1
2 2
3 3
4 4
5 5>
6 6
7 7
8 8
9 9
10 10>
11 11
12 12
13 13
14 14
15 15>
16 16
17 17
18 18
19 19
20 20>
21 21
22 22
23 23
