getGEOSuppFiles

A GEO accession number such as GPL1073 or GSM1137

Should a "subdirectory" for the downloaded files
    be created?  Default is TRUE.  If FALSE, the files will be
    downloaded directly into the baseDir.

makeDirectory

The base directory for the downloads.  Default is the
    current working directory.

baseDir


  NCBI GEO allows supplemental files to be attached to GEO Series (GSE), GEO
  platforms (GPL), and GEO samples (GSM).  This function "knows" how to
  get these files based on the GEO accession.  No parsing of the
  downloaded files is attempted, since the file format is not generally
  knowable by the computer.

 database 

The NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) is a public repository of microarray data.  Given the rich and varied nature of this resource, it is only natural to want to apply BioConductor tools to these data.  GEOquery is the bridge between GEO and BioConductor.
