## Export segments to BED files

### Description

The segments are color coded based on their score (methylation or differential methylation value). They are named by segment group (components in mixture modeling) and the score in the BED file is obtained from 'seg.mean' column of segments object.

### Usage

    methSeg2bed(
      segments,
      filename,
      trackLine = "track name='meth segments' description='meth segments' itemRgb=On",
      colramp = colorRamp(c("gray", "green", "darkgreen"))
    )

### Arguments

`segments` | `GRanges` object with segment classification and information. This should be the result of `methSeg` function
`filename` | name of the output data
`trackLine` | UCSC browser trackline
`colramp` | color scale to be used in the BED display defaults to gray,green, darkgreen scale.
