Read header information from cel file

This function reads some of the header information (appears before probe intensity data) from the supplied cel file.

read.celfile.header(filename,info=c("basic","full"),verbose=FALSE)

`filename`	name of CEL file. May be fully pathed
`info`	A string. `basic` returns the dimensions of the chip and the name of the CDF file used when the CEL file was produced. `full` returns more information in greater detail.
`verbose`	a `logical`. When true the parsing routine prints more information, typically useful for debugging.

A list data structure.
