\title{Write a Matrix to a File to be Read by Scythe}
\description{

  read by the Sycthe Statistical Library.  Scythe requires that
  input files contain the number of rows and columns in the first
  row, followed by the data.
}
  
\usage{
  write.Scythe(outmatrix, outfile=NA, overwrite=FALSE)

    over-writing existing files.}
