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

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.
