Hi,
the ascii file reader "load" cannot read fortran's 'D' or 'd'
syntax for "double" precision.

2.3459D+00 -5.5848D+00  2.8277D+00 -1.2659D+01 -3.1762D+00 -1.3141D+01
-2.4572D+00 -6.0110D+00

It works on the command line:
octave:44> r=4d2
r = 400

but not with the "load" command.
Unfortunately I didnt find the lexer for the "load"
command to patch it. Can anybody help me?


Daniel
