[Paraview] binary VTU format

[burlen]

  You have to be careful of the terminology because in the world of VTK 
XML files "binary" really means base 64 encoded, and "appended not 
encoded" means binary. I have used the following two lines in a code in 
order to coax the VTK XML writer to write binary:

   w->SetDataModeToAppended();
   w->SetEncodeAppendedData(0);

ParaView has these options in the file->save data menu of you choose the 
XML format.
