[scilab-Users] can not read all words in a ascii file

[Mathieu Dubois]

Hello,

The fact that you get a string matrix is related to the way mscanf works 
(it's a bit complicated, see the examples in help page). Basically, like 
scanf in C, %s reads a string delimited by whitespace (therefore you get 
a string per word).

To read lines in a file see mgetl.

I didn't succeed to read the file you send (it looks like it contains 
strange bytes and maybe that's why mscanf don't works) but it works with 
the attached file.
-->fd4 = mopen("P_70",'r');

-->mgetl(fd4)
  ans  =

  A legendary legend
