Hi everyone,

I am using the sample post processing utility, and it is putting crazy characters in the headers of the output files! So much so that It is difficult to read them - the text editors can't figure out what ISO to use. I sometimes see little snippits of what looks like code in the headers, things like "t,r,a,c,k,1" and "G,A,M,S". All sorts of stuff is inserted in between the actual headers. Usually normal data starts afterwards, unless it throws off the text editors ISO and I get all Chinese characters. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? When I try to copy the file and paste it here, I just get "x,y,z", and when I try to upload it, CFD forums says "invalid file". This is very frustrating! Below is a copy of my function object:

Thanks!

I tried the output formats "raw", "gnu", and "jplot", and they all work fine...
