[vtkusers] binary VTK

[Marocchino, Alberto]

Hello everybody, I ha indeed a problem with vtk binary file.
I have tried to write a vtk binary file in F77... I could not.. so I have tried to write it with C but I cannot make paraview read what I am writing!
This is the program I am using to outputting a slice with a vtk format, I should be able to read it. The problem is that the shape looks correct but the values are completely wrong!
can you please suggest me something? So once it is working I can try to reproduce exactly the same stuff in F77.
Cheers
Alberto
