Sequences

In EUPHORIA I read a file that was written in FORTRAN and it has the
following format:

  4I4

A record might look like this where "b" is considered to be a blank.

  bbb0bbb0bbb0bbb0

     or

   bb23b112bb34bb23

    or

  b103bb58bbb6bb23

I can go thru each record checking for blanks and probably convert the
numeric values but I have not found an easy way.  When I look at each
record in a sequence statement all four characters are in a group. There
has got to be a simple way to convert each 4 character field to an
integer.  It is my understanding that a dimension statement does not
exist in EUPHORIA.  Is this true?  The reason I ask is that as I unpack
each 4 characrter numbers in each record I would like to place it in a
buffer where I can use it as an integer for later calculations.

I guess I can place them back in a sequence to do all of my calculations.

If someone will help me with this simple problem I would be very
appreciative as I am still trying to convert a simple QB program to a
EUPHORIA program!

Thanks,
