error in the ftp site url when downloading supplement files for a GPL with getGEOSuppFiles

[fouslim]

Hi Sean,

I think there is a typo in the GEO ftp site url when you download supplement files for a GPL with the function getGEOSuppFiles, platform should be replace by platforms (line 37 of the file getGEOSuppFiles.R):

url <- sprintf("ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/platform/%s/%s/suppl/",stub,GEO)
url <- sprintf("ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/platforms/%s/%s/suppl/",stub,GEO)

thanks
