NAME

       freefoam-tetgenToFoam - Converts .ele and .node and .face files, written by tetgen.

SYNOPSIS

       freefoam tetgenToFoam <file prefix> [-help] [-srcDoc] [-noFaceFile] [-doc] [-parallel]
       [-case <dir>]

DESCRIPTION

       Make sure to use add boundary attributes to the smesh file (5 fifth column in the element
       section) and run tetgen with -f option.

       Sample smesh file:

               # cube.smesh -- A 10x10x10 cube
               8 3
               1   0 0 0
               2   0 10 0
               3   10 10 0
               4   10 0 0
               5   0 0 10
               6   0 10 10
               7   10 10 10
               8   10 0 10
               6 1                 # 1 for boundary info present
               4   1 2 3 4 11  # region number 11
               4   5 6 7 8 21  # region number 21
               4   1 2 6 5 3
               4   4 3 7 8 43
               4   1 5 8 4 5
               4   2 6 7 3 65
               0
               0

       NOTE: - for some reason boundary faces point inwards. I just reverse them always. Might
       use some geometric check instead. - marked faces might not actually be boundary faces of
       mesh. This is hopefully handled now by first constructing without boundaries and then
       reconstructing with boundary faces.
