Description
            dataINT offers functions for convienient interactice im-/export of data files, 
as comma-separated-value- (*.csv, *.dat, *.txt) and binary Excel files (*.xls)
to or from a Scilab matrix. 

Parameters, to specify the im-/export, can convieniently entered in a dialog  
box and the file selection is done by the platform-specific 
file selection dialog.

You can specify the following im-/export parameters:
- Field separator (comma, semicolon, tab, space)
- Decimal separator (comma, point)
- Rows and Colums you want to import (DI_readcsv, DI_readxls only)
- Sheet you want to import (DI_readxls only)
- Number of lines to skip, e.g. header line(s) (DI_readcsv, DI_readxls only)
- Comment header line to describe your data (DI_writecsv only)

IMPORTANT: dataINT does not handle data from XML-based Excel files (.xlsx)!
NOTE: dataINT handles doubles only.

The functions can easily integrated in your own scripts to make use of 
dataINT's interactive functionality or to simplify your data import in 
Scilab's console.

FUNCTIONS:

* DI_readcsv

* DI_readxls

* DI_read

* DI_writecsv

dataINT is available for Scilab 5.5.x, 6.0.x, 6.1.x and is cross-platform.
