[Scilab-users] read format

[grivet]

Thank you Samuel, this works like a charm, even though the last step 
(evstr) takes a couple of minutes (80000 lines!).
For a completely different solution: read the file into emacs, define a 
rectangle of width 20 chars and height the whole file, delete this 
rectangle, search for ".1" and erase every occurence of this string.
Thanks to everybody,
JP Grivet
