IGES

[gdmcbain]

Not a real issue, I just wanted to answer a query about IGES that had been appended irrelevantly to #108.

From @tady57, a few hours ago

My question is how to connect .igs file with python. Inside of that file I have geometry which I have to use to create mesh. I do not know what all text in .igs file mean so I have not tried to read line by line from .igs file yet.

I expect .igs is an MS-DOS-style three-letter suffix for IGES, a CAD-format largely superseded by STEP. The latter was discussed and dismissed in #121 ; much of that applies to IGES too: it can be opened directly in Gmsh with

Merge "thing.igs";

but not much done with it thereafter, so it doesn't have much to do with pygmsh, I wouldn't think.
