fscanf, sscanf not MATLAB compatible

Hi,
   Just noticed that fscanf and sscanf are completely different from
the MATLAB commands of the same name:

Octave:

[A, B, C, ...] = fscanf (FILENAME or FILENUM, FORMAT)

Matlab 4.0:

[A,COUNT] = fscanf(FID,FORMAT,SIZE)

Additionally, the MATLAB version does not print errors or warnings if
not enough elements are read, it just sets COUNT to the number
successfully read. Much more useful, I think.
