Dear Kubicek I cannot e-mail you the original mesh as it is a 34 MB file. By the way, it is a 2D mesh.
Thank you for the offer, but i think I won't need the program Kind regards Javier 2009/7/30 Kubicek Bernhard <[email protected]> > In have a functional converter from the 3d-gambit mesh file format to the > gmsh file format. > If you send me the compressed Gambit mesh, I could send you back the gmsh > mesh. > Also, I have a converter from gmsh geo file to gambit journal file. > However, both are programmed using linux, and I am not really allowed to > give away the code (approx 1year of coding, and it includes much more than > just the converter, but also solvers and a lot of junk). > If you really need it more often, maybe i can try to compile it with cygwin > and send you a windows executable for non-commercial use.
