Hi Karlo,

The output of the SPHERE keyword is designed to be passed to the
TRIGRID function. The TRIANGULATE helpfile states that 'The structure
contains the 3D Cartesian locations sample points and the adjacency
list that describes the triangulation.', so I'm guessing .iadj
and .iend are fields that contain information about the adjacency
list. Have a look at Example 2 in the TRIGRID helpfile.

If you want to find out what the arrays in these structure fields
actually _mean_, then I'm afraid I'm no use to you! :-/

Regards,
Chris
