[vtkusers] problems with GetCellNeighbors

[Bill Chivas]

*GetCellNeighbors* (  vtkIdType  *cellId*, vtkIdList *  *ptIds*, vtkIdList*
*cellIds* )

1) cellid is the cell i want its neighbors. As "cell" is a e.g. tetrahedron
cell or one of its faces?
2) ptids are cell's points or one of its faces' points?
3) cellids are cells (e.g. neighboring tetrahedra) or faces (neighboring
faces)?

I'm a little confused!
