These matlab scripts are for reading and writing data from/to SAC 
(Seismic Analysis Code) time-series format files.

The included tools are:

msac_new.m    : Generate a new SAC trace object from a vector of data    
msac_read.m   : Read a SAC trace object from a file  
msac_write.m  : Write a SAC trace object to a file
msac_mread.m  : Read multiple SAC traces into an array of SAC traces objects    
msac_mwrite.m : Write multiple SAC trace objects out to files 

To use these tools, move the scripts somewhere onto your MATLAB search path. For
calling syntax, type 'help <script_name>' on the MATLAB prompt.
