    file: the path of the file

    data: a matrix (or data frame) which provides the data to put into
          the file

  labels: a logical value indicating whether we use the frist column as
          labels (NAME column for cluster file)

description: a logical value indicating whether we use the second
          column as description (DESCRIPTION column for cluster file)
