     This returns a brief version of the ggobi instance description,
     giving the name of the file and mode of the data source and the
     dimensions of the first dataset. This is brief in contrast to the
     more complete description provided by 'describe.ggobi'.

     getDescription.ggobi(.gobi=getDefaultGGobi())

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

     A list with three elements: 

Filename: the name of the primary input file from which the data was
          read. If the data was given directly from R, this is the
          description value supplied at theat time.

Data mode: the format in which the data was presented to ggobi.

Data dimensions: the number of records and variables in the dataset.
