I like your project. I used to contribute to CalculiX and used it with Gmsh often. They are great tools.

I was playing around with pycalculix and noticed that the mesh.CharacteristicLengthFromCurvature flag that you are adding to the GEO files fails in the current version of Gmsh (4.3.0) with the example problem hole-in-plate-full.py. This is an experimental option according to the Gmsh docs, so it may be good to try to work without it.

Thanks for this PR @jeffbaylor. Can you please rev roll the pycalculix library minor version in setup.py and add a description of your update to the changes file?

Thanks for the PR @jeffbaylor. I will merge this into master with some other fixes. Thank you also for maintaining the Calculix for windows binaries at http://bconverged.com/
