Similar requirement. Sometimes the data is scooped up from
an Excel spread sheet, or sometimes just a lot of terms.
I use a text editor (sometimes notepad) to make an ascii
data file, dataset.txt. Include "fake" headers at the top
of the file [those five lines at the top, describing what
the data is] to make it look like a standard ascii style
octave file.
then use...
>> load -force "dataset.txt";
...to load it in, and overwrite the specific variable.
