[Paraview] Saving VRML/X3D file from python

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Here's a sample script:

--------------------------
from paraview.simple import *
# create the exporters module since it's not currently created
# by default (adding a BUG for that)
exporters = servermanager.createModule("exporters")
Cone()
Show()
view = Render()
x3dExporter = exporters.X3DExporter(View=view, FileName="/tmp/foo.x3d")
x3dExporter.Write()
--------------------------

Do dir(exporters) to list the available exporters
