Here's another suggestion. For medium sized vectors, you can do
something like this,

a = [1,2,3,4]
a = [a,5,6,7,8]
a = [a,9,10,11,12]
a = [a,13,14,15,16]
... and so on

This won't work for large vectors since A gets redefined each line of
the script, and will start to thrash memory. For large vectors you
will want to use OPENR/READF as shown by 'pp'
