[Paraview] Unable to do Volume rendering on BOV file

[Benson Muite]

Hi Amit,

XDMF data format is a little better than BOV in ParaView for rectilinear
data. VisIt will also read XDMF.

An example code can be found here:
https://raw.github.com/openmichigan/PSNM/master/KleinGordon/Programs/KleinGordon3dMpiFFT/xdmfcreate.f90

The corresponding example program to create BOV header files is here:
https://raw.github.com/openmichigan/PSNM/master/KleinGordon/Programs/KleinGordon3dMpiFFT/bovcreate.f90

These programs take as input the number of grid points in each dimension
Regards,
Benson
