[vtkusers] Cylindrical Grid - which dataset implementation: is there a Howto/are there example scripts?

Hello vtk-userslist,

Unfortunately I cannot find the example data for the Lox.tcl script
(postxyz.bin, postq.bin) to find out about cylindrical grids in vtk. I
had the impression that cylindrical grids actually are structured grids
but the following remarks from vtk documentation make me doubt that:

Cite from vkStruturedGrid:

"
The topology is that of a cube that has been subdivided into a regular
array of smaller cubes 
"

How can I construct and visualize cylindrical grids with data attached
in vtk? Are they not structured grids?
I also own the book "VTK User's Guide" for 4.4, but there is nothing on
the cd for cylindrical grids and no explanations in the book (apalogies
if I have missed them)

Any help is appreciated, 

Greetings,
Martin
