- new alt+r shortcut to switch range modes

new gui for plugins (much better IMHO!)

- only save mesh vertices that are used by elements

- fix warnings + indent + memory leaks in new Field classes

- temporary fix to avoid crashes in new field manager when post-pro
  views are reloaded or removed at run-time

background mesh. I've still to write some fields sub-class, but backward
compatibility should be ok now.

we use the Lawson algorithm for 3D surface and the smallest circumsphere
of the triangles as circumcircle.

compatibility when extruding multiple entities at once)

- changed '-convert' syntax to process multiple files at once

- added lateral entities in list returned by extrusion commands

add stack check for unix (same as the one we use in getdp)

- tentative fix for the "mysterious" crashes on Windows:

  I think that the problem comes from the new recursive tetra
  classification, where we probably overflow the stack on Windows. The
  fix is to request a larger initial stack size through the linker.

- added option to control label saving in unrolled geo files

- only test for neg jacobians for 2D/plane meshes for now

- fixed several compiler warnings

- preliminary work to interface more parser functions with general
  GEntities

- we can now export simple GModels as.geo files (points, straight line
  segments, plane surfaces, ruled surfaces and volumes are treated
  correctly; all non-straight-line curves are exported as splines; all
  non-plane/ruled surfaces are not exported)

- tentative fix for the unv export problem reported on the mailing
  list (fprintf() buggy on some machines??)

- new IO (both read and write) for structured grids using the NASA
  Plot3D format (for Olivier)

- boundary layer can now be generated by using a post-pro view for the
  normal field

- added more operations on lists in parser (FExpr * FExpr_Multi, etc.)

- new "hole carving" code to create extruded grids carved out around
  some surfaces (the resulting cavity can be filled with "grout" using
  the unstructured algos)

- check if bboxes of post-pro views are not == VAL_INF before adding
  them to the model bbox (bug report from Renaud Sizaire)

- fixed crash in LCM_xxx tensor drawing code when no tensor points are
  available. (This piece of code should be cleaned up further--no time
  for that now.)

- generalize Levelset plugins so that they work on point data sets

make depend + fix warnings

new boundary layer mesh generator

refactored smooth value/smooth normal code into single SmoothData.* file

added General.MinX, General.MaxX, etc. so that we can easily get the
min/max of a model (useful e.g. to create a box around an imported
STEP model)

added example of mixed step/geo model

use the 3D Delaunay by default (if tetgen is available)

polish

- added warning dialog before attempting to append a scripting
command to a non-geometry file

- fixed mean plane computation for periodic curves

- added headers + ramn indent on Attractor files

enhancement of gmsh Surfaces

JFR

make depend

- temporary fix for creation of second order vertices on periodic
  curves and periodic surfaces

- speedup 2nd order vertex creation

- never create MFaceVertices if we don't know the parametric
  coordinates (this will screw up the 2nd order algo!): create
  MVertices instead

- fixed u,v coords of vertices after elliptic smoother in
  meshGFaceTransfinite

- added "-format msh1" and "-format msh2" shortcuts to quickly
  select the version of the msh format from the command line +
  added "med" and "cgns" formats

- moved gui guidelines in separate file

better configure for MED

added MED export capability (merci Pascale!!)

- subclassing higher order vertices is not a good idea--it makes the
identification hard in the I/O layer. So let's just store a char for
the order like we did in the old versions

- fixed license.texi and in License.cpp

- removed unused GEntity::inClosure()

fix logic + crashes w/ bgmesh on file

- nicer display of second order elements (don't draw internal edges)
- nicer display of second order vertices (color like in 1.65)

- only delete selected physicals (instead of all of them; for philou)
- move "save" button in visibility window
- small logic fix in mesh draw

added gui for OCC healing

simplify selection colors (keep only one) and add 3 highlight colors

- fixed missing return value in OCCVertex::reparamOnFace

- added code to highlight orphan entities (dave's idea)

- added gui for incomplete second order elements

- removed ugly static variables in 1d algo

- made sure we remove all 2d order vertices before generating new ones

removed gobal meshSize in GMODEL: for now use CTX.lc, which is correctly
updated when multiple files are merged

- added exception to GPL for triangle/tetgen
- fixed some command line switches
- added option to antialiasing OpenGL rendering

- new option Geometry.Tolerance (or -tol on the command line) to set the
tolerance for the old CAD engine, for OCC healing and for STL import

- removed more unused options

- reimplemented subdivision of extruded meshes
- fix indent + unused var + gcc warnings all over the place
