Is it normal that there is no output? I am new so I don't know what to expect when I do<br>
gmsh gmsh_test.mesh<br>
<br>
if I type<br>
gmsh<br>
I get the help menu.<br></blockquote><div><br>No GUI? If I type "gmsh", I get a GUI. If I type "gmsh gmsh_test.mesh", I get an empty GUI, as I guess Gmsh is confused by the suffix. If I type "cp gmsh_test.m{e,}sh; gmsh gmsh_test.msh", I see "A scalar view" in the GUI, from which I can save a PNG, as attached.<br>
