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

     This function enables the user to add a column data variable,
     "colvar", (which specifies a value for each row/cell) to the data
     of a "FCS" object and updates the data information in the metadata
     of a FCS object.

_M_e_t_h_o_d_s:


     _x = "_F_C_S", _c_o_l_v_a_r = "_v_e_c_t_o_r" Adds colvar to the data portion of
          the "FCS" object; colvar must agree in length with the row
          dimension of the data matrix

     _x = "_F_C_S", _c_o_l_v_a_r = "_v_e_c_t_o_r", _s_h_o_r_t_n_a_m_e="", _l_o_n_g_n_a_m_e="", _u_s_e._s_h_o_r_t_n_a_m_e=_F_A_L_S_E Other
          unlisted options in the signature include:

          (1) shortname : character string denoting the name of colvar;
          default value is "".

          (2) longname : character string denothing the long name of
          colvar; default value is "".

          (3) use.shortname : boolean; if TRUE then the shortname is
          assigned to the column variable in the data, otherwise the
          longname is used; default value is FALSE
