[vtkusers] Newbie doesn't know C++

Hi,

Do you need C++ to compile VTK from source, and then get Marching Cubes and
Decimation patented algorithms (the 2 you need most for your purposes)?

You might know it already, but one can write and run workable VTK programs just
in TCL or Python (since they are wrapped to C++ by VTK.

Best regards,
