Export HTCexp object to tab format

1	exportC(x, file, per.chromosome=FALSE, use.names=FALSE, header=FALSE)

`x`	object that inherits from class `HTCexp`
`file`	character; the basename of the output file
`per.chromosome`	logical; export each contact maps in a different files (i.e one per chromosome pair)
`use.names`	if TRUE, keep the original row/colnames of the contact matrix
`header`	if TRUE, add an header with the package version and the date

Three output files will be created ; 2 BED files for each genomic intervals, and one tab file. The standard format for 5C/Hi-C data is the following :
** One list file (tab delimited) bin1 bin2 x12 bin1 bin3 x13 ... ** The BED file(s) describing the intervals ('xgi.bed' and 'ygi.bed' are usually the same for Hi-C but can be different for 5C data) chr1 1 1000000 bin1 chr1 1000001 2000000 bin2 ... Note that this format is particularly interesting for sparse data as only non null values are stored. If per.chromosome=FALSE, the data will be exported in one genome scaled file.
