[R-sig-Geo] Export matrix weights to excel.

Yes, I got it.

Now, I saw an issue in the matrix, I’ve got two regions with value 1 inside the matrix, if it is W style, how is it possible?. The rest of rows are standardized.

Another question, the output follow the order of regions of the shape file, isn’t?

Thank you
