NAME

       mtst - test the consistency of source meshes

SYNOPSIS

       mtst [options] [mfile] [lfile]

DESCRIPTION

       The  mtst  program  checks,  in a sequential way, the consistency of a Scotch source mesh and, in case of
       success, outputs some statistics regarding edge weights, node and element vertex weights,  and  node  and
       element vertex degrees.

       Source  mesh  file mfile can only be a centralized mesh file. The resulting statistics are stored in file
       lfile. When file names are not specified, data is read  from  standard  input  and  written  to  standard
       output. Standard streams can also be explicitly represented by a dash '-'.

       When the proper libraries have been included at compile time, mtst can directly handle compressed meshes,
       both  as  input  and  output.  A  stream  is  treated as compressed whenever its name is postfixed with a
       compressed file extension, such as in 'brol.msh.bz2' or '-.gz'. The  compression  formats  which  can  be
       supported  are the bzip2 format ('.bz2'), the gzip format ('.gz'), and the lzma format ('.lzma', on input
       only).

OPTIONS

       -h     Display some help.

       -V     Display program version and copyright.

EXAMPLE
