%
%% R85_TO_R8GE copies a R85 matrix into a R8GE matrix.
%
%  Discussion:
%
%    The R85 storage format represents a pentadiagonal matrix as a 5 
%    by N array, in which each row corresponds to a diagonal, and 
%    column locations are preserved.  Thus, the original matrix is 
%    "collapsed" vertically into the array.
%
%  Example:
%
%    Here is how a R85 matrix of order 6 would be stored:
%
%       *   *  A13 A24 A35 A46
%       *  A12 A23 A34 A45 A56
%      A11 A22 A33 A44 A55 A66
%      A21 A32 A43 A54 A65  *
%      A31 A42 A53 A64  *   *
