_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Writes BPMAP and TPMAP files.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     writeTpmap(filename, bpmaplist, verbose = 0)

     tpmap2bpmap(tpmapname, bpmapname, verbose = 0)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

filename: The filename.

bpmaplist: A list structure similar to the result of 'readBpmap'.

tpmapname: Filename of the TPMAP file.

bpmapname: Filename of the BPMAP file.

 verbose: How verbose do we want to be.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     'writeTpmap' writes a text probe map file, while 'tpmap2bpmap'
     converts such a file to a binary probe mapping file. Somehow
     Affymetrix has different names for the same structure, depending
     on whether the file is binary or text. I have seen many TPMAP
     files referred to as BPMAP files.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     These functions are called for their side effects (creating
     files).
