Dear Chandra Users,
Version 0.3.7 of the SLang HDF5 module is now available:
http://space.mit.edu/cxc/software/slang/modules/slh5
The new features in this module include:
1. New h5_list() function, which is analogous to the h5dump utility.
2. All datasets or attributes in a given container may now be read
with a single h5_read() call, by specifying the "*" wildcard.
3. Paths to objects may be colon-appended to the file names passed to
h5_read() & h5_open(), allowing a file + group/dataset/attribute
to be opened/read in a single call. For example,
a = h5_read("test.h5:/group/dataset/","attribute")
4. Minor enhancements to the documentation.
A brief description of the HDF5 file format, I/O library, and S-Lang
module may be found in the previous Chandra users group post at:

Happy Holidays,
Mike
