Folks,

In an earlier post, I said that I had gotten octave to compile
successfully.  Unfortunately, I now discover that I cannot get the
octave fscanf function to do anything but report that EOF has been
reached.  I tried Mumit Khan's binary, and got one of these:

(c:\software\gnu\bin\octave-2.0.9.exe 1064) In cygwin_except_handler exc
C0000005 at 4FF3B3 sp 321E694
error: EMT instruction -- stopping myself...
attempting to save variables to `octave-core'...
save to `octave-core' complete

The code is:

dataFID = fopen("retzius-dcc-chopped.unix.txt","r");
data = fscanf(dataFID,"%f");

and retzius-dcc-chopped.unix.txt looks like this:

0 -51.5625  0.0732422
5e-4  -51.5137  0.0732422

0.009 -51.7578  0.0878906
0.0095  -51.8066  0.0927734

All of this is using b18 nt4 sp3.  Is this a well-known problem,
(octave's) fscanf not working?
