removed global THEM

(once more step towards nicer integration of old GEO stuff)

- removed static GMODEL (can now have multiple models)
- added infrastructure for new post-processor module

- better SplitFileName (e.g. to remove full path from
  \includegraphics{} in .tex files)

- better interactive positionning of projection surfaces

implemented "Save groups for nodes" for unv

format needs to be verified

- 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)

added MED export capability (merci Pascale!!)

fix err msg

Added basic support for physicals in all mesh formats that ignored physicals
before (stl, vrml, mesh, bdf, pos). This way we can use the physical mechanism
to only save parts of the mesh (like we do it now for msh and unv files).

Next step will be to add an option to only mesh the physicals (and their
dependencies). This is very useful for large models and/or for debugging.

support for CGNS IO

new GModel::writeGEO (only implemented for gmshModel for now; goal is to be able
to implement this for other derived model types (like OCC) later, too)

- finished Nastran BDF implementation (read+write in all BDF formats:
  free field, small field & long field)
- improved UNV and Medit import
- added detection of bad vertex indices in all import routines
- fixed bug in 2nd order quad constructor

- changed UNV output to match MSH output w.r.t. physical groups
- new UNV file reader

Added support (both read and write) for the Nastran Bulk Data File
format (BDF).

This might need some adjustments depending on what the actual spec
is: I just reverse engineered some BDF files I found on the web :-)

refer to .mesh as MEDIT format, not INRIA format

simplify TeX printing

Implemented new binary MSH file format (both read and write).

A 250Mb mesh file (6 million tetrahedra) is now read or written to disk in
less than 10 seconds (on my powerbook's slow hard drive).

added binary stl export

- SVG export
- more work on new geo database

typo

merging offscreen rendering from branch

- new button under the graphic window to temporarily disable mouse
  selection (speeds-up redrawing of very large models + permits to
  rotate/zoom-in a model in selection mode even when the whole screen
  is full of selectable entities--e.g. a surface mesh)

- new "lasso" selection mode (to select entities using the same kind
  of lasso as the lasso zoom: just Ctrl+click, then drag the mouse in
  selection mode; the shortcuts are the same as for the lasso zoom)

- it is now possible to unselect entities using the middle mouse button
  (only for the creation of physicals at the moment; not sure if it's
  useful in the other cases)

- new button in visibility browser to invert the current selection
  (very useful e.g. when multiple physical entities are associated
  with a given elementary entity, in order to "peel" away the model
  when adding new physicals; cf. philou)

- changed meaning of Escape shortcut (cancel lasso or toggle mouse
  selection) + restore standard fltk Escape handling for all dialog
  windows

- updated copyright string

- new mesh label mode (coordinates); all label types are now also
  available for mesh vertices

- added option in 'Print Option' dialog to disable printing of help
  strings

- added a comment string with the date when creating a new file

- new snapping grid for adding points in the GUI

Removed all compile-time depdencies on byte ordering (big- or little-
endianness). Replaced them with run-time conversions where necessary (only
for packing/unpacking of colors into unsigned ints). Performance hit
should be negligeable, but this will allow to compile Universal Binaries
on Mac in a single step (instead of having to compile the PPC/big-endian
and the i386/little-endian separately, which wouls be a royal pain in the
butt).
