Hi,

I have a custom generated motif database (a single text file of several motifs).  I'd like to load this motif database into R for use with motifStack.

I run the following and see this error:

> motifs <- importMatrix(filename, format="meme") 
Error in switch(alphabet, ACGT = "DNA", ACGU = "RNA", ACDEFGHIKLMNPQRSTVWY = "AA",  : 
  EXPR must be a length 1 vector

Is there something wrong with the format of my input file?  Is there an example input file with MEME formatted motifs that correctly loads with the  importMatrix() function?

If needed, please see my session info below:
