DIALOGUE PARAMETERS

 Input size           : a scalar, the size of the input

 Output file name     : a character string defining the path of the file

 Output Format        : a character string defining the  format to use

                     "l","s","ul","us","d","f","c","uc"

                                                        : for reading  respectively  long, ashort, unsigned
14
 
                                   long,  unsigned short, double,  float, 
15
 
                                   char and  unsigned char. If required by
16
 
                                   the swap mode, the bytes which are read
17
 
                                   are automatically swapped if necessary
18
 
                                   (by checking little-endian status) in
19
 
                                   order to produce machine independent
20
 
                                   binary files ( in little-endian mode).

22
 
                     "ull","uls","ubl","ubs",
23
 
                                                        : can be used for reading respectively unsigned
24
 
                                   little-endian long or short and unsigned
25
 
                                   big-endian long or short.

27
 
                     "dx","fx","lx","sx"
28
 
                                                        : with x=b or x=l can be used for reading double,
29
 
                                   float, long or short as big or little
30
 
                                   endian.
31
 
                                   
32
 
 Buffer size          : To improve efficiency it is possible to buffer the
33
 
                      input data. read on the file is only done after each
34
 
                      Buffer size call to the block. 
35
 
                      
36
 
 Swap mode            : With Swap mode=1  the file is supposed to be coded
37
 
                      in "little endian IEEE format" and data are swaped if
38
 
                      necessary to match the IEEE format of the processor.
39
 
                      If Swap mode=0  then automatic bytes swap is
40
 
                      disabled.
