Is there an easy approach to reading in a data file with the following
format inorder to display the variance - covariance matices in 3D space?
The data represent a principal components analysis conducted in another
software package that only provides 2D display capabilities.    Is a
list format the most appropriate?

I am working with Unix Splus 3.3 and Windows/NT 4.0(Rel 3) versions of
Splus.

Thanks in advance.

The following is an abbreviation of the whole data set. There are a
total of 6 9x9 matrices that need to be read into Splus.
