  I don't believe that those components are referred to as principle
components, loadings
or something like that is, I believe, the more common term.

   I don't know if it is correct - you can look at W when running the
function (use R's function debug)
and once you are sure you know what you would like to have returned I
would be happy to modify
the package.
