How to run SCIRun at the CVRTI

How to start

1. set up the following environment variables
   scipath=/u/quan/SCIRun
   export LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH=${scipath}/lib:/usr/local/lib32:${LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH}
   export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${scipath}/lib:/usr/local/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
   export TCL_LIBRARY=${scipath}/tcl/tcl/library
   export TK_LIBRARY=${scipath}/tcl/tk/library
   export PATH=${PATH}:${scipath}/convert
2. run SCIRun program
   sh>/u/quan/SCIRun/sr

How to convert files

1. CVRTItoVFUG: generates scalar and vector field unstructured grids, ie. .pts, .tetra, .pot, .grad -> .sfug, .vfug (same base name)
2. CVRTItoSFUG: generates scalar field unstructured grids, ie. .pts, .tetra, .pot -> .sfug (same base name)
3. CVRTItoSurf: generate a surface object, ie. .pts, .fac, .pot -> .surf (same base name)
