vtkMCubesWriter - write binary marching cubes file

Description:

vtkMCubesWriter is a polydata writer that writes binary marching cubes files. (Marching cubes is an isosurfacing technique that generates many triangles.) The binary format is supported by W. Lorensen's marching cubes program (and the vtkSliceCubes object). Each triangle is represented by three records, with each record consisting of six single precision floating point numbers representing the a triangle vertex coordinate and vertex normal.

Caveats:

Binary files are written in sun/hp/sgi (i.e., Big Endian) form.
