Use Python wrapper to connect to visualization toolkit

Change order of FlowField data layout from i,y,x,z to i,x,z,y

Bring User's Manual up to version 1.2.x

Implement velocity-vorticity algorithm

Implement body force. Hansjörg Seybold.

Implement Boussinesq approximation

Implement 2D time integration (x,z periodic, no y variation)

Build packages for common Linux variants and OS-X: RPM, DPKG, …. 2008-09-26, v1.3.1: Simplified autoconf system allows straightforward RPM builds. Working on building packages for multiple OS's using openSUSE build farm. Will require separate channelflow and channelflow-devel packages. The fun never ends!

Improve build system: either bring current autoconf system into line with GNU standards or switch to Cmake. 2008-09-25, v1.3.0: autoconf system now runs with “./configure; make; make install” and compiles Octave-dependent code only when Octave is detected.

Write TUTORIAL. 2008-10-03, v1.3.3: Improved README, INSTALL, and examples/README, too.

Switch FlowField binary IO to HDF5. Thanks, Milos Ilak. May 2009
