Leon,

If you are reading and writing SCIRun Field files, the FieldReader and FielWriter should keep track of endianness and do any byte swapping when going between big and little endian. Is your data stored in some other format?

Hi,

I'm running bioelectric simulations on a IRIX64 machine, and the output
is in binary big endian format. The potential is printed for each node in the mesh, and there is a row for each timestep.
I want to view the results on a linux machine, which is little endian.
Since this might be common, I was wondering if there is a converter in
scirun that converts big endian to little endian?
