_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Specifically this method is able to extract components or slots.

     ANY.object[1]  retrieves the first element or slot

     FCSmetadata.object["fcsinfo"] obtains the "fcsinfo" slot which is
     a list

     FCSmetadata.object["$P1R"] obtains the first parameter range/max 

     FCSmetadata.object[1:10]  obtains first 10 elements of the
     "fcsinfo" slot of the metadata

     FCS.object[1,2:3] extracts/reduces the data of the "FCS-class"
     object

_M_e_t_h_o_d_s:


     _x = "_A_N_Y" extracts elements

     _x = "_F_C_S_m_e_t_a_d_a_t_a" Extracts slot information.

          If using a single character string index such as the
          slotNames ("mode" or "$MODE"; "size" or "$TOT"; "nparam" or
          "$PAR"; "longnames" or "$PnS" or "$P1S" or "$P2S" etc...;
          "shortnames"or "$PnN" or "$P1N" or "$P2N" etc...;
          "paramranges" or "$PnR" or "$P1R" or "$P2R"
          etc...;"fcsinfo";"objectname", "original", "filename") as
          well as the "fcsinfo" slotNames can be retrieved.

          If using a numeric single-valued or numeric vector index,
          only the "fcsinfo" slots are numerically indexed and can be
          retreived.

     _x = "_F_C_S" extracts or reduces the data portion of the object and
          returns a "FCS-class" object

     _x="_P_R_I_M._s_t_e_p" extracts the object via a character slot name and/or
          a numeric iteration ID 


     _x="_P_R_I_M._s_t_e_p._s_e_t", _y="_m_i_s_s_i_n_g" extracts the object via a character
          slot name for the step (ie, "peel.step" or "expand.step") and
          with an optional slot name for the "PRIM.step" object.


     _x="_P_R_I_M._c_r_o_s_s_v_a_l._s_t_e_p", _y="_m_i_s_s_i_n_g" extracts the object via a
          character slot name and/or a numeric testdata ID
