_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Read a 1lq file for an Affymetrix genechip

_U_s_a_g_e:

     getProbeData_1lq(arraytype, datafile, pkgname = NULL)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

arraytype: Character. Array type (e.g. 'Scerevisiaetiling)

datafile: Character. The filename of the input data file. If omitted a
          default name is constructed from 'arraytype' (see this
          function's source code).

 pkgname: Character. Package name. If NULL the name is derived from
          'arraytype'.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     This function serves as an interface between the (1)
     representation of array probe information data in the packages
     that are generated by 'makeProbePackage' and (2) the vendor- and
     possibly version-specific way the data are represented in
     'datafile'.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     A list with three components 

 dataEnv: an environment which contains the data frame with the probe
          sequences and the other probe data.

  symVal: a named list of symbol value substitutions which can be used
          to customize the man pages. See 'createPackage'.

 pkgname: a character with the package name; will be the same as the
          function parameter 'pkgname' if it was specified; otherwise,
          the name is constructed from the parameter 'arraytype'.
