[Vis5d-users] Re: unstructured grid

Sanjin,

Just to add:  there's a software called Ferret which can handle
unstructured grids, which can regrid for vis5d.  i.e. You can convert
unstructured grids into uniform grids directly into vis5d format from
ferret.  But this may take a bit of ferret-learning.  But the demos are
a tremendous learning tool.  You can check ferret out at the following
