Dear all,

Playing with systems_of_equations_ex2, I noticed that the Exodus output
could be much improved to suit Paraview (which seems to be the most
often used viewer now that GMV is no more available):

1. renaming the vector variables "u" / "v" to "vx" / "vy" is recognized
   by Paraview as a vector, and can be easily displayed with the Glyph
   filter

2. changing the file names to the Paraview convention for time series,
   one can immediately look at the animation within Paraview (now there
   is a recommendation to create screen shots)

          // We write the file in the ExodusII format.
          file_name << "out.e-s."
                    << std::setw(3)
                    << std::setfill('0')
                    << std::right
                    << t_step;

          ExodusII_IO(mesh).write_timestep (file_name.str(),
                                            equation_systems,
                                            1, t_step);

Maybe this should be changed in all locations where time series are
created, also the diffusion-advection problems etc.

Should I create a patch?

Best, Martin
