### Description

This function converts mach-imputed files to `DatABEL` (filevector) format. After conversion, two files (outfile.fvi and outfile.fvd), corresponding to single filevector object, will appear on the disk; 'databel-class' object connected to these files will be returned to R

### Usage

      mach2databel(imputedgenofile, mlinfofile, outfile,
        isprobfile = FALSE, dataOutType = "FLOAT")

### Arguments

`imputedgenofile` | MACH mldose (or mlprob) file name
`mlinfofile` | MACH mlinfo file name
`outfile` | output file name
`isprobfile` | whether imputedgenofile is a prob-file (default is FALSE, that is dose-file assumed)
`dataOutType` | the output data type, either "FLOAT" or "DOUBLE" (or other DatABEL/filevector type)
