  This avs subroutine transforms a picture of atomic force microscope in the
  "scalar uniform field" structure as defined by AVS.  This picture consists
  of a set of heights on a square uniform grid.  The informations on this
  picture are contained in a ascii file.  The expected ascii format is
  very simple.  It consist of a header of three lines (the file name and
  two experimental parameters of the atomic force microscope : the z_scale
  and the z_dsclale) followed by data :

		<file name>
		<parameter 1>
		<parameter 2>
		<data [0][0]>
		<data [0][1]>
		   ...
		<data [0][N]>
		<data [1][0]>
		<data [1][1]>
		   ...
		   ...
		<data [N][N]>

	Notes : * In this example, the size of the grid is NxN.
		* The file 'example.dat' contains an example of a 10x10
                  picture.

  LIMITATIONS : the data file must contain a maximum of 160000 measures.
