- additional verbosity option for conversions
- ignore old `-finite-area` option and always convert available
finiteArea mesh/fields unless `-no-finite-area` is specified (#2374)
ENH: simplify point offset handling for ensight output
- extend writing to include compact face/cell lists
- Default format is now XML binary (base64) instead of legacy format.
The old -xml option is redundant and ignored.
The new -legacy option can be used to force legacy output instead.
- Polyhedral decomposition is now off by default (old -poly is ignored).
The option -poly-decomp forces decomposition of polyhedrals into
primitive shapes.
- reduced memory footprint by reading and converting fields
successively.
- Creation of symlinks to processor files is no longer required or
desired. The old -noLinks option is ignored.
- Ignore -useTimeName option. Always number according to timeIndex.
- simplifies usage.
Support syncPar check on names() to detect inconsistencies.
- simplify readFields, ReadFields and other routines by using these
new methods.
