[Paraview] STL Reader Bug Fix

Hi All,

in the vtkSTLReader.C you use the fscanf method for parsing.
The problem is that on operating systems where the decimal point is a comma
instead of a point, this messes up everything as the STL format itself is
not country dependant..
I think it would be best to enforce the locale for the fscanf in order for
VTK / ParaView to be able to load STLs in different country OS.

What do you think?

Best,
Jacques
