assistance with RDAtest beta version application

Thank you so much for coming to my rescue!:

 OK I have been able to open it (but only in the R editor.  I assumed that we had to generate our own files of XX.txt and YY.txt and bring them into R before the program could run.... Is this right?  

  

So I created two as tab delimited text files (Here they are).  I am able to bring them into R and when I edit them, they look fine.  

  

This is the code to this stage:

rdaTest <- function(YY.mat, XX.mat, WW.mat=NULL, 
           scale.Y=FALSE, testF=NULL, nperm=NULL, print.results=TRUE, print.cum=FALSE)
{
library(MASS) 

	# Read the data tables. Transform them into matrices Y, X, and W
YY.mat = -read.table("YY.txt")
 XX.mat = -read.table("XX.txt")

Y.mat=as.matrix(YY.mat)
  

X.mat=as.matrix(XX.mat)
    

bb<-edit(y.mat) 
bb<-edit(x.mat) 

  
But when I try to then convert these two files to mat files, nothing happens?  I'm assuming it has something to do with this step, but I can't figure it out.  Note: I tried creating base yy.mat and xx.mat files, by just changing the file names, but that didn't work..... 

So is this the problem, When I look at the y.mat and x.mat they look no different than the original txt files
