Comment (by barry.wardell):
I agree something like this would be useful additions to the Einstein Toolkit, if only to serve as simple examples. There are also some alternatives which may be preferable to the McLachlan thorns:
* There is a SimpleWave example included with Kranc which is almost identical to ML_WaveToy, but the Kranc script is a bit simpler. * There is a collection of Kranc generated scalar wave equation thorns at http://bitbucket.org/barrywardell/scalarwave. These are somewhat more advanced in that they solve the scalar wave equation on a curved background spacetime. This is achieved in two different ways. The first method uses a Metrics database to define the background and generates one thorn per spacetime. The second method simply reads the ADMBase variables and uses those as the background.
