-fdtd/-smonitor: Monitoring of scalar field quanitities

During a time domain computation (with a static mesh, ienot windowwake), the scalar field quantities can be monitored.

name:
The name to give to the scalar quantity.
whattosave:
Specifies what scalar quantity shall be monitored.
normal:
The plane normal of the plane section over which the field shall be integraded to give the scalar quantity.
cutat:
The coordinate value of the plane in which the plane section lies over which the scalar quantity shall be integrated.
bbxlow=,bbxhigh=,bbylow=bbyhigh=,bbzlow=,bbzhigh=:
Specifies the coordinates of a bounding box. Only the fields that lie within the box are integrated.
doit:
The parameters are saved, the parameters of a next scalar quantity can be entered.
