%READFIELDS reads fields or records from a fixed format file
% 
% struc = READFIELDS(filename,filestruct) reads all the records from a fixed 
% format file.  Filename is a string containing the name of the file. If it 
% is empty, the file is selected interactively. filestruct is structure defining 
% the format of the file. The contents of filestruct are described below. The 
% result is returned in a structure.
% 
% struc = READFIELDS(filename,filestruct,recordIDs) reads only the records 
% specified in the vector recordIDs.  For example, recordIDs = [1 2 4].  All 
% of the fields in the selected records are read.
% 
% struc = READFIELDS(filename,filestruct,fieldIDs) reads only the fields 
% specified in the cell array fieldIDs. For example, fieldIDs = {1 2 4}. The 
% selected fields are read from all of the records. fieldIDs may be used 
% in place of recordIDs in all calling forms.
% 
% struc = READFIELDS(filename,filestruct,recordIDs,machineformat) opens the file 
% with the specified machine format.  machineformat must be recognized by 
% FOPEN.
% 
% struc = READFIELDS(filename,filestruct,recordIDs,machineformat,fid) reads from a 
% file that is already open. The records are read starting from the current 
% location in the file. 
% 
% The format of the file is described in the input argument filestruct.  
% filestruct is a structure with one entry for every field in the file.  
% filestruct has three required fields: length, name and type.  For fields 
% containing data binary data of the type that would be read by FREAD, length 
% is the number of elements to be read, name is a string containing the 
% fieldname under which the read data will be stored in the output structure, 
% and type is a format string recognized by FREAD. Repetition modifiers such 
% as '40*char' are NOT supported.  Fields with empty fieldnames are omitted 
% from the output.
% 
% The following filestruct definition is for a file with a 40 character 
% character field, a field containing two integers, and a field with a 
% single-precision floating point number.
% 
%   filestruct(1).length = 40;     
%   filestruct(1).name = 'character Field';  % spaced will be suppressed					
%   filestruct(1).type = 'char';
%   
%   filestruct(2).length = 2;     
%   filestruct(2).name = 'integer Field';  % spaced will be suppressed					
%   filestruct(2).type = 'int16';
%   
%   filestruct(3).length = 1;     
%   filestruct(3).name = 'float Field';  % spaced will be suppressed					
%   filestruct(3).type = 'real*4';
% 
% 
% The type can also be a FSCANF and SSCANF-style format string of the form 
% '%nX', where n is the number of characters within which the formatted data 
% is found, and X is the conversion character such as g or d.  For formatted 
% fields, the length entry in filestruct is the number of elements, each of 
% which have the width specified in the type string.  Fortran-style double 
% precision output such as '0.0D00' may be read using a type string such as 
% '%nD', where n is the number of characters per element.  This is an 
% extension to the C-style format strings accepted by SSCANF. Users unfamiliar 
% with C should note that '%d' is preferred over '%i' for formatted integers. 
% Matlab follows C in interpreting '%i' integers with leading zeros as octal.  
% Line ending characters in ASCII files must also be counted in the filestruct 
% specification. Note that the number of line ending characters differs across 
% platforms.
% 
% A field specification for a formatted field with two integers each 6 
% characters wide would be
% 
%   filestruct(4).length = 2;     
%   filestruct(4).name = 'Elevation Units';  					
%   filestruct(4).type = '%6d'
% 
% To summarize, length is number of elements for binary numbers, the number 
% of characters for strings, and the number of elements for formatted data.
% 
% Fields can be omitted from all output by providing an empty string for the 
% filestuct name field.
