Hi Marcus,

Great!! Awesome.  This is probably the most effortless visualization that I
have created for my user base. I was getting ready to write a loader for it
when I was approached with a CUBE data format.

You mentioned I can do a lot more with ParaView, is there like a manual to
help guide me through? other than bugging you for it?

Thanks,
Simon
