I'm not sure that i understand your question.

A simple way may be:
1- download ff3d from cvs, and compile it.
2- go to 'examples' directory and run stokes example (or anything else) as
        ../ff3d stokes.ff 
which uses geometry given in stokes.pov (povray format)
3- you can visualize solution files created by ff3d with medit
        medit stokes-p.mesh
+ press 'm' key for showing solution values.
[data explorer export format are also available]

For writing ff3d code, you can see documentation in 'doc' directory.
Syntax of ff3d is close to C++ but is a small subset of C++ with some 
special keyword and syntax for building equations and mathematical 
problems.

Suffix of ff3d files is not important, but common usage is to use '.ff' 
suffix.

If you have any other questions on ff3d, we will try to help you.
ff3d is still a pre-version and any feedback is welcome.

Regards,
Pascal.
