[FLASH-USERS] Tecplot

[Tomasz Plewa]

Mark, Artur -

There is FLASH-Tecplot format converter available in FLASH2 distribution:

      $FLASH_ROOT/tools/flash2tec

I have no experience with using it, but it was extensively used in the  
Center's work in the past and some of its users might still be around  
to help.

Cheers -

Tomek
