Description-en: Three-dimensional finite element mesh generator. Development files
Gmsh is a 3D finite element grid generator with a build-in CAD engine
and post-processor. Its design goal is to provide a fast, light and
user-friendly meshing tool with parametric input and advanced
visualization capabilities. Gmsh is built around four modules: geometry,
mesh, solver and post-processing. The specification of any input to
these modules is done either interactively using the graphical user
interface or in ASCII text files using Gmsh's own scripting language.
.
See Gmsh's reference manual for a more thorough overview of Gmsh's
capabilities.

The package contains development files.
