- clean up GModel API (xxByTag -> getXx, numXx -> getNumXxes, ...)

rewrote Pplugin(Triangulate) to use our in-house divide and conquer algo
removed triangle from contrib
reactivated OCC STL meshing

API cleanup: new discreteVertex, discreteEdge, ... entities (replacing
the old hacks in gmshVertex, gmshEdge, ...), the future basis of the
indepedent "null" model (cf. HAVE_NO_GEO define)

start reducing header pollution (removed Gmsh.h + cleaned up GModel & co)

upgraded all plugins to work with the new post-pro.

This is done "cheaply" for now, by only using old-style list-based datasets.
Taking advantage of the abstraction (so that we can use the plugins on all
datasets) will require more work. The hooks for transparent data translation
are in place, but the actual translation has not been implemented yet.

new gui for plugins (much better IMHO!)

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

more cleanups

bidir db: phase 3 -- move all the old geo stuff into Geo/

- 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

upgrade triangle to version 1.6

small doc fixes

- removed all the crappy STL code and rewrote it using JF's POLY_rep
  class

- generalized POLY_rep so that we can use the polygonal discretization
  as a surface mesh, and mesh in 3D afterwards. I.e., we can now take
  an input triangulation (a single surface in STL format, multiple
  surfaces in STL format, one or more surfaces defined using the new
  "Discrete Surface" commands), and generate a 3D mesh that uses it. We
  could in theory even mix triangulated and "normal" surfaces in the
  same geometry, but nothing is done at the moment to ensure that the
  mesh at the interfaces would match (if it does, it actually works
  very nicely)

- new STL mesh output format to export a surface mesh as a STL file

- added an option to the GEO output routine to save the surface mesh
  as discrete surfaces associated with the geometrical surfaces

- added STL and Text output formats for post-processing views (the
  text output allows for example to exploit plugin-generated data in
  gnuplot)

- generalized Plugin(Evaluate):

  * can loop automatically over all the timestep and/or components

  * can do operations using data from an external view

     - if the 2 views are based on the same grid, the plugin does the
       evaluation very efficiently

     - if the 2 views are based on differenet grids, the plugin
       automatically interpolates the external view data onto the
       grid of the current view

- added new Rand() function in MathEval

- default colormap is now # 2 (the Matlab "Jet" colormap)

copyright update

This patch fixes an old design flaw in the post-processing module,
namely that we used a list of Post_View objects instead of a list of
pointers to Post_View objects in CTX.post.list.

This had many annoying consequences, in particular the fact that we
needed to be extra careful every time the list was reallocated (as
pointers to the list elements would become invalid).

I tried very hard to change the code everywhere it should be changed,
but I might have missed something. Please let me know if you see
anything suspicious (like a crash when you duplicate/remove/combine/...
post-processing views).

- fixed seg fault in Plugin(Triangulate)
- added BBox computation in plugins when the coordinates are changed

Generalized Plugin(Triangulate) to handle vector and tensor views

adapt verbosity test to new default

secured most of the list_pointer accesses

Added automatic documentation generation for plugins

- better file names for views created by plugins
- use the file name as a guess for view_save_{ascii,binary}

Update copyright notice

Fixed (or added a FIXME comment) when a post.list reallocation
could lead to problems

small changes to copy the time values (instead of relying on EndView
to just add the time step number)

Say if the plugin is executed in-place or if it creates new views

Big Levelset rewrite (+ cleanup of all other plugins).

Not finished yet, but I need to commit this now so that I can use it
with the boss tomorrow at work.

This version should compile and have all the old features working,
plus some extras (levelsets of scalar/vector/tensor 1D, 2D and
3D simplectic views).

JF: 'Plugin(XX).Save' is now deprecated. Use 'Save View[XX] "filename"'
instead.

Reworked the help strings for all the plugins. Easier to understand,
now, Sean? :-)
