[vtkusers] reading triangles data

[Patrick Schuska]

Hi. 
I`m trying now for hours to fix the header of my triangles file. I tried
also to read the header in ascii, but then I have got more errors.

No comes the error message: unrecognized keyword: ....

I included my file..

Can please somebody take a look into it...?? :o)

Thanks, Patrick

Patrick,

	Please read this pdf file:

	http://vtk.org/pdf/file-formats.pdf

	There is no TRIANGLE keyword in VTK file format. Instead your
file 
should be:

# vtk DataFile Version 3.0
vtk output
ASCII
DATASET POLYDATA
POINTS 50 float
0 0 0
....

POLYGONS 96 384
3 2 8 0
3 ...
3 ...
