[Paraview] tetgen mesh

[Andy Bauer]

Hi Ken,

I'm not familiar with the formats of the files you sent us.  I'm not that
familiar with tetgen either so it's possible that we may be talking about
the same software or we may not.  In any case, the tetgen output grid file
that I have looks like the following at the top:
MESH3D
E4T     1  4913  5569  4914  5530     2
E4T     2  4913  4953  4914  5569     2
E4T     3  4913  4952  5569  5568     2
E4T     4  4913  4952  4953  5569     2
E4T     5  4913  4912  5568  5528     2

The nodes are listed second and look like:
ND     1 1672.1247729534 1357.9324205486 -14.27143712838
ND     2 1580.6340102853 1340.230370113 -3.885760029157
ND     3 1580.6340102853 1340.230370113 -14.12243425846

These are the files that we are able to read.  Does this look like it's from
the same software?

Andy
