Hi all,

I had an additional question.  I'd like to convert this script into a
Custom Filter using the python_filter_generator.py script
<http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/534>, but this requires the output
type to be set automatically.  Is that possible with the Programmable
Filter, i.e., is it possible to set the output type without manually using
the drop-down menu?

Thanks,
Evan Kao
