From owner-help-octave at bevo dot che dot wisc dot edu Thu Dec 21 07:21:12 1995 Subject: fread/fwrite matlab --> octave From: "Fabrizio Nozza" To: help-octave at che dot utexas dot edu Date: Thu, 21 Dec 1995 14:07:07 +0100 i have installed octave 1.1.1 on my Crimson SGI (S.O 5.2 64Mb Ram 2Gb Scsi Disk). I have some problem to read an image that contains signed integer of 16 bit (in matlab it is possible using int16 in fread command), I have tried different format (as suggested in the manual, short, ushort, char etc.) without results. I have read in Octave faq mailing list a mail of root at aia dot RWTH-Aachen dot DE (Jan 10 1995) about this problem but there are two little problem: 1) this mail speaks about octave 1.0 2) this mail reports only the difference between modified files. I have send an e-mail to root at aia dot RWTH-Aachen dot DE and for the moment I haven't recevied an answer, perhaps someone could help me ?
