This Glyph script writes ANSYS input files for 2D and 3D grids. Simply load your grid into Gridgen and run the script. The scripts write a file called ansys.inp in the directory where the script resides.

March 2008 Update: A single script now handles both 2D and 3D grids.

July 2006 Update: Both scripts were modified to handle BC names with spaces (e.g. "my bc") and non-homogeneous groups of BCs. The original two scripts are posted here for historical purposes.
