How do I generate the KiNG images for genome clustering using the R codes provided?

Hi IMG users,

I wonder how I can generate the KiNG images for genome clustering using the R codes provided by IMG. According to the R file, I obtained a tab-delimited file from Compare Genomes -> Abundance Profiles -> Overview, and did principal coordinates analysis on the table. The output from the R file is a table containing the x, y, and z coordinates of the PCoA plot. If I use this as the input to KiNG, KiNG does not recognize it. So am I missing some steps to convert the PCoA results from R to a file KiNG takes as an input? 

Thanks a lot,

Zoey

The KiNG web site can explain how to set up the input file: http://kinemage.biochem.duke.edu/software/king.php
