Utkarsh: Thanks! Works!
I had tried that: I thought it had not worked, because it (python?, pvpython?) did not print to the screen from a test script. Is there a way to print info to the screen (or to a specified file)? When I use "Run Script" (to run show_vtu.py) from the python shell that is started when Tools -> Python Shell is manually selected, prints to the screen work.
