[BioC] How to write a flowFrame from a matrix

[Kipper Fletez-Brant]

Hi Mark,

I'm not sure if you've seen the flowCore reference guide [1] but it 
explains how to create a flowFrame.  In addition to your matrix of 
observations, you also need to fill the slots for 'parameters' and 
'description'; this can done using either the 'new()' command or a 
built-in flowFrame constructor.

see pg 51
