[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #39505] dlmwrite with coffset and roffset >0, inserts extra characters

[imartinez]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #39505 (project octave):

Are you reading the file back on octave??

I am writing on octave and opening the file in a text editor to check it.

if you read back on octave, it looks ok

x = dlmread ('matrix_text.txt', ',')
x =

        2        3        4        5        6
        2        3        4        5        6
        2        3        4        5        6
        0        0        0        0        0
        0        0        0        0        0
        1        2        3        4        5
        1        2        3        4        5
        1        2        3        4        5
        0        0        0        0        0
        0        0        0        0        0
        0        0        0        0        0
        0        0        0        0        0
        1        2        3        4        5
        1        2        3        4        5
        1        2        3        4        5 

octave does not have problems because the extra characters are read are valid
empty lines.

READ THE NEXT STATEMENT CAREFULLY

if you open the file in an EXTERNAL TEXT EDITOR (like KWRITE)

2,3,4,5,6
2,3,4,5,6
2,3,4,5,6
,,,,
,,,,
1,2,3,4,5
1,2,3,4,5
1,2,3,4,5
,,,,
,,,,
,,,,
,,,,
1,2,3,4,5
1,2,3,4,5
1,2,3,4,5


If the file goes to an external application, then the little ,,,,,
are a problem.

it is HIS code
