ACCEPT /FORMAT

            Specify a fortran format to read the input file for  command  ACCEPT
        /ARRAY  or  ACCEPT /COLUMN. Mixing CHARACTER and NUMERIC (REAL,...)  ar-
        rays is not available yet, and only one character array can be read at a
        time. Blank or commented lines are not skipped.

        Example:
            SIC> TYPE cities.dat
              Toulouse          1.111    11.11111
              Bordeaux          2.222    22.22222
              Grenoble          3.333    33.33333
              Marseille         4.444    44.44444
            (truncated)
            SIC> DEFINE CHARACTER CITY*16[44]
            SIC> DEFINE REAL X[44] Y[44]
            SIC> ACCEPT X Y /COLUMN "cities.dat" /LINE 4 /FORMAT "20x,F8.3,1x,F8.3"
            SIC> ACCEPT CITY /COLUMN "cities.dat" /LINE 4 /FORMAT "2x,A16"
