[scilab-Users] Finding continuous parts in a mask (ie a binary matrix)

[Antoine Monmayrant]

Thanks to all of you.
I got it working thanks to Stéphane who mentionned the image processing 
toolbox of matlab.
It helped me identify what I was looking for (bwlabel aka a flood fill 
algorithm with a good reference: Robert Sedgewick, Algorithms in C, 3rd 
ed., Addison-Wesley, 1998, pp. 11-20).
In the end I used the source of the octave bwlabel package as a base.

Cheers,

Antoine
