Treat *MWRITE like *VWRITE??

[mikerife]

Hi All
Should we treat *MWRITE like we do *VWRITE? Maybe recommend that we use NumPy or SciPy to write out a matrix on this page like we do for *vwrite (recommend to use Python writing to file). Or create a method in PyMAPDL or PyMath?

@germa89 @clatapie @mcMunich @pmaroneh et al, any opinion?

p.s. *mwrite requires a formatting line like *vwrite does so it would need to be run in non_interactive.

Since that command requires to input the format in the next line, I agree we should discourage its use.

Hi @mikerife,
Thanks for raising this discussion. I agree with your comment.
I think we could also add this recommendation in the mwrite documentation. This could be as a Note or a Warning section and it would probably have more visibility.

Good idea about the warning!
