     'bugs2jags' converts a WinBUGS data in the format called "S-Plus"
     (i.e. the format created by the 'dput' function) and writes it in
     'dump' format used by JAGS.

     NB WinBUGS stores its arrays in row order.  This is different from
     R and JAGS which both store arrays in column order. This
     difference is taken into account by 'bugs2jags' which will
     automatically reorder the data in arrays, without changing the
     dimension.
