What about other file formats. Which file formats are ok to use with
tetrahedral elements?

However, i'm not really clear what the default format is (as mentioned in my
previous email). In step-5 of the tutorial I can't find the link to the file
"circle-grid.inp" and am confused what I can possibly put in that can make
things work...
Thanks!
