NAME

       surfaceMeshExtract - part of OpenFOAM (The Open Source CFD Toolbox).

SYNOPSIS

       surfaceMeshExtract [OPTIONS] output

DESCRIPTION

       Extract patch or faceZone surfaces from a polyMesh. The name is historical, it
       only triangulates faces when the output format requires it.

ARGUMENTS
