dear Christophe, my awk-script is meant as an example only, howto modify the msh-file after creation. for users not familiar to commandline tools however, this is not useful. I personally have no problems with the current format. remark: until now I only used msh version 2, because this can be used together with FreeFem.

The problem is that in the key-format file generated by Gmsh, the coordinates of nodes have too many digits. For instance, in the node information: *NODE 22, 0, 0.012499999999976, -0.001 23, 0, 0.02499999999995, -0.001 24, 0, 0.037499999999926, -0.001 25, 0, 0.049999999999907, -0.001 the y-coordinates of nodes 22-25 have 15 digits that cannot be read by Ls-dyna. So could any people shed light on how to reduce the number of digits in Gmsh? I am using command lines, not GUI. Thank you so much in advance.
