IOASCII using thorn Hyperslab. No PUGH in here anymore !
Also changed the output format to use tabs rather than spaces which reduces the output filesize by 1/3. Should still pass all testsuites (tested for the WaveToys). If everything else is okay we can move IOASCII into the IOBasic/ arrangement and remove CactusPUGHIO/IOASCII. Also finally removed all the http stuff. git-svn-id: http://svn.cactuscode.org/arrangements/CactusBase/IOASCII/trunk@2 94b1c47f-dcfd-45ef-a468-0854c0e9e350

+Cactus Code Thorn IOASCII
+Authors : Gabrielle Allen, Tom Goodale, Thomas Radke
+CVS info : $Header$
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+1. Purpose of the thorn
+
+This thorn does 1D and 2D output of 3D variables in ASCII format.
+
+1D output slices through the edge (in octant mode) or center
+(in all origin-centered modes) of the grid in the x,y, and z directions.
+If the grid is cubed it will also slice in the diagonal direction.
+Ouput files can be processed with either gnuplot or xgraph.
+
+2D output is done for the xy, xz, and yz plane.
+Ouput files can be processed with the splot command in gnuplot.
+
+The IO methods "IOASCII_1D" and "IOASCII_2D" are registered
+which can be called by other thorns via CCTK_OutputVarAsByMethod()
+to output a variable without specifying it in the parameter file.
+
