[CIG-SEISMO] Asking SPECFEM2D SU format (other email)

[Dimitri Komatitsch]

Dear all,

Would it make sense to rename the binary files from *.bin to *.bin.su or 
to *_bin.su then (when SU_FORMAT is on), to avoid confusion?

Or is it obvious that SU format is just a binary array?

Let me know if you would like me to change that.

Thanks,
Dimitri.
