R help - Feb 2009 - Decision Function of Support Vector Machine

Hi,

As a number of people suggested, I downloaded the "e071" package and
am using
the function "svm" for my classification problem. I now want to take
the classifier outside
the R environment, for example to a C program, and use it.

 I know that the classifer is of the form
WTX+b where W is defined by the support vectors. I did not see that  W vector is
output
from svm. If am I right  how should I  compute it? Is b output?

Thanks
Meir
