[Fwd: Re: [Paraview] Is pvbatch available for PV3?]

[Jordi Campos i Miralles]

I use the PV-Dump.py I posted in:

http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/paraview/2007-July/005427.html


To "prepare a batch job interactively", save it to a python script and
"perform a little editing" to obtain the "batch script".

Is it ok for you?



Fabian Braennstroem said it was ok form him
http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/paraview/2007-July/005432.html

and Michael Martinec -that has posted the original question
http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/paraview/2007-July/005423.html -
emailed directly to me to say it was also ok for him.



Could we improve this PV-Dump.py (it is a script I coded just to show PV
scripting capabilities in a presentation) and adding it as a "tool
script" in the PV distribution?
