Ok, I get the idea. Here is what I tried:

fid=fopen(....,'rt');
l=' ';
while 1
l=fgetl(fid);
if strfind(l,' Nmoves')>0,break,end
end
Nmoves=sscanf(l,' Nmoves=%d');
Nrequired=fscanf(fid,' Nrequired=%d'); %up until here, no changes
l=fgetl(fid); %added this line
Tot_RL=sscanf(l,' TotRL= %f'); %added this line
fid=fclose(fid);

I am getting:
> Tot_RL =

[ ]

Is something missing with the second fgetl() line?
