  Description     : PDL Interface to the HDF5 Data Format

This package provides an object-oriented interface for the
PDL package to the HDF5 data-format. Information on the
HDF5 Format can be found at the NCSA's web site at
http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/ .
.
LIMITATIONS
.
Currently this interface only provides a subset of the total
HDF5 library's capability.
.
* Only HDF5 Simple datatypes are supported. No HDF5 Compound
  datatypes are supported since PDL doesn't support them.
.
* Only HDF5 Simple dataspaces are supported.
