Details

The format values "SRBT", "KST", and "matrix" refer to the different generations of file formats described in kstIO-package. The value "auto" (default) requests an automatic detection of the format by thje read_XXX function.

read_kfamset() reads any knowledge space file (space, structure, basis) and ignores any file type infor in SRBT file headers.

If as.letters is TRUE the elements of the sets are letters, otherwise numbers.
