\begin{Description}\relax
Quantile normalization to a reference set.
\end{Description}
\begin{Usage}
\begin{verbatim}
normalize.quantiles2(X, Reference.Quantiles)
\end{verbatim}
\end{Usage}
\begin{Arguments}
\begin{ldescription}
\item[\code{X}] A matrix of probe intensity data to be reference quantile 
normalized.
