I am not sure a previous e-mail reached the list (no mail aknowledgement from R-boundle etc.). The question was how to write polygon or segment coordinates into a shapefile set or any other ArcGIS supported format. The library shapefiles seems to do something but the documentation is a bit beyond of my mind.... and I cannot get the meaning of the functions write**** and its application to the case below:
In simple words, is there a somewhere a function taking polygon coordinates (or simple segments) within R to a "ready to read" set of files ***.shp, ***.shx, etc...
