Exodus Reader needs to handle restart files
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
This could either be an animatiuon or an exodus reader issue. Need to be able to read exodus files with sequential or overlapping timesteps and animate them as a single sequence. The common case here is restart files --typically if a simulation crashes and has to be restarted we wind up with a sequence of files named test.e, test.e-s0002, test.e-s0003 ... Each file will contain one or more timesteps (in some cases overlapping -- typically each subsequent file repeats the last timestep or two from the previous one with the later files timesteps being the correct ones). We need a way to open a all of these files (even if each one is split geometrically as well) and animate all of them sequentially over time.
