Re: [igraph] Parse error in Pajek format

[Gábor Csárdi]

Dear Fabio,

the problem is that there is no definition at all for the Pajek file
format. (As far as I know.)
Plus there is no source code for Pajek either, that we could use to
see what formats Pajek accepts.

So far I have never seen Pajek files with a number after *Arcs, but if
you say this is legal, then we can easily support it, of course. I'll
add this to the development version, in a minute.

Thanks for your report! Best,
Gabor
