+\title{ A function to save a list of chromosome-wise x/y data frames
+  into a WIG file format. }
+\description{
+  Takes a list that contains an $x and $y data.frame for a number of
+  chromosomes and writes it out to a WIG BED style format.
+}
+\usage{
+writewig(dat, fname, feature, threshold = 5, zip = F)
+}
+%- maybe also 'usage' for other objects documented here.
+\arguments{
+  \item{dat}{ Chromosome coordinate-value data. \code{dat} is a list,
+    each member of a list is a data frame with $x and $y columns
+    containing chromosome positions and associated values. The names of
+    the list elements correspond to the chromosomes. }
+  \item{fname}{ Filename to which the output should be written }
+  \item{feature}{ Data description to be incorporated into the WIG header }
+  \item{threshold}{ Optional threshold to be saved in the WIG file}
+  \item{zip}{ Wheter to invoke a zip program to compress the file }
+}
