[vtkusers] How to Read *.pic file into vtk?????

[Budd Hirons]

Hello,

Extract the dimensions of the data set from the PIC file header into local 
variables which you can use in the SetDataExtent call.

This *may* be the PIC spec you need, there is a struct that shows you the 
internals of the PIC file:
