[vtkusers] unable to read multiple parts with vtkEnSightReader and derivative classes - VTK 4.4.2 on Linux

[Amy Henderson]

Hi Ken,

Once the EnSight reader has been Update()'d, you can call 
GetNumberOfOutputs() on it to determine how many parts the file contains. 
You can then call GetOutput(idx) (where idx is an integer between 0 and 
number_of_outputs-1) to get a particular part.
