Hello,

Not yet. A Matlab toolbox exists which should be relatively easy to port 
to scilab.
But a presentation of the wiki page shows that the approach used in the 
matlab toolbox (store the results in strings) is slow and another 
approach can be used (defined a special scilab type).
This approach seems a little bit hard for me. But the first one is easy. 
I am currently on another task, so I will not wok on this one.

Yann
