R help - Jun 2012 - separate the sentence after finding a particular word

hello,
I want to know ..how we can separate the sentence after finding a particular
word...
for example

I love to watch movies  of Hollywood but should not be romantic...I want to
join you school but due to bad financial condition I cant..

I want output in following format
I love to watch movies  of Hollywood
should not be romantic
I want to join you school
due to bad financial condition I cant

So whenever  this but is coming in the sentence of a paragraph I want the
sentence before but and after but in two different lines...

Please help me....

Thanks in Advance

Hello,

Try

x <- scan(what="character", text="my name name name is
micky")
rle(x)
paste(rle(x)$values, collapse=" ")

Hope this helps,

Hello,

Sorry for my earlier reply, it was meant for another question you posted.
In what follows, 'x' is your text.

f <- function(x, pattern) unlist(strsplit(x, pattern))

x <- "I love to watch movies  of Hollywood but should not be 
romantic...I want to
join you school but due to bad financial condition I cant."
x <- gsub("[[:space:]]+", " ", x)

pat <- c("but", "\\.\\.+") # one period is ok, not 2 or
more

Reduce(f, c(x, pat))  # break it.
