Hello Michel,
You can exploit the fact that by default, when physical groups are defined,
Gmsh only saves the entities that belong to physical groups. So you can just
mesh once, define your physical groups in turn, and save each time. Here's an
example:
---
SetFactory("OpenCASCADE");
Box(1) = {0,0,0, 0.1,1,1};
Box(2) = {0.1,0,0, 0.3,1,1};
Box(3) = {0.4,0,0, 0.6,1,1};
BooleanFragments{ Volume{1,2,3}; Delete; }{}
Mesh 3;
Physical Volume("Left", 1) = {1};
Save "m1.med";
Delete Physicals;
Physical Volume("Middle", 2) = {2};
Save "m2.med";
Delete Physicals;
Physical Volume("Right", 3) = {3};
Save "m3.med";

Cheers,
Christophe
