[Paraview] ParaView 3 with off-screen support

[Marzio Sala]

John, Jean,

thanks a lot for your help. I re-compiled ParaView 3 as suggested, but now I
am a bit lost on how to produce images off-screen... Basically, my goal is
to produce images in batch without opening the ParaView window (and without
having a DISPLAY). Do you think that this is possible? Is there an example
somewhere?

Thanks,
-Marzio
