Hi,

    I have added a class vtkRayIntersector with a function
IntersectWithRay.
It basically calls vtkCellLocator::IntersectWithLine. It can be used to
to intersect a surface with a ray from within a tcl or python script.
Right
now, you can get only the co-ordinates x of the intersection and the
flag
whether an intersection was found.

    I am not sure if people need to use
vtkCellLocator::IntersectWithLine
from Python/tcl. I have put it at my website:

http://www.irus.rri.on.ca/~ddey/vtkRayIntersector.tar.gz

This file has the class vtkRayIntersector.h and vtkRayIntersector.cxx,
and a
test tcl script. Comments/ suggestions are welcome.


    Damini.
