I startet with finding out the file structure of 5.x *.mat files.
Up to now I can see how integer/real full and complex matrices are
stored.
There are a lot of other data types there like 
sparse matrices, cell's and structs  which I haven't looked at right
now.
As far as the other data types are not known at least to skip them
it makes no sense to code something.

For decoding the data structure I use m-files inside matlab. ;-)

If somebody is interested in helping (extremely alpha) let me know.
