Read electronically (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scan

'read electronically' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for scan that I've seen before include "make a detailed copy of" , "Analyse a piece of verse for metre" , "Scrutinise; glance over" , "Conform to a metrical pattern" , "Look over cursorily" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press, The Washington Post, the Newsday and the Universal.
