It looks like a CSV file, but there is no visible separator. When you open
the file with a text editor, are there tabulations between the columns ? Do
you notice that the cursor is "jumping" from the last letter of a column to
the first of the next one ?

If so, you can try the dlmread function from octave core, or the dataframe
package from octave-forge package. In the latter case, you write:

data=dataframe('myfile.csv');
data=data.array(:,1:2) %# to extract the two first columns and convert to a
matrix of double.

Pascal
