warnings which don't help user to undesrtand where the problem is

[bugs_bunny]

I just found this bug on google and since you posted it only 2 days ago I'd
like to ask you how you'd solved it. I still get "warning: implicit
conversion from scalar to string" when I use the functions:

[charc, count] = fscanf (FID, "%c", 1);
[header, count] = fscanf (FID, "%s\n", 1);

I don't see any other way to write the syntax. The program works though, it
is only annoying.

I use GNU Octave, version 2.1.53 (powerpc-apple-darwin7.2.0). I checked for
updates, but there were no packages to install.
