hdf_set_valuef - Set the value of a named node SYNOPSIS
#include <util/neo_hdf.h> NEOERR* hdf_set_valuef (HDF *hdf, const char *fmt, ...) ATTRIBUTE_PRINTF(2,3); ARGUMENTS
hdf -> the pointer to the hdf dataset fmt -> the name=value printf(3) format string DESCRIPTION
hdf_set_valuef is a convenience function that wraps hdf_set_value. Due to limitations of C, the fmt is in the format "name=value", where we will first format the entire string, and then break it at the first (from the left) equal sign (=) and use the left portion as the name and the right portion as the value. This function is somewhat inefficient in that it first allocates the full name=value, and then the call to hdf_set_value duplicates the value portion, and then we free the name=value. Currently, we don't strip whitespace from the key or value. In the future, this function might work more like reading a single line of an HDF string or file, allowing for attributes and sym- links to be specified... maybe. RETURN VALUE

h5fromh4 - convert HDF4 scientific datasets to an HDF5 file SYNOPSIS
h5fromh4 [OPTION]... [HDF4FILE]... DESCRIPTION
h5fromh4 takes one or more files in HDF4 format and outputs files in HDF5 format containing the datasets from the HDF4 files. (Currently, only a single dataset per HDF4 file is converted.) HDF4 and HDF5 are free, portable binary formats and supporting libraries developed by the National Center for Supercomputing Applications at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign. A single h5 file can contain multiple data sets; by default, h5fromh4 creates a dataset called "data", but this can be changed via the -d option, or by using the syntax HDF5FILE:DATASET with the -o option. The -a option can be used to append new datasets to an existing HDF5 file. If the -o option is used and multiple HDF4 files are specified, all the HDF4 datasets are output into that HDF5 file with the input filenames (minus the ".hdf" suffix) used as the dataset names. The most basic usage is something like 'h5fromh4 foo.hdf', which will output a file foo.h5 containing the scientific dataset from foo.hdf. OPTIONS
-h Display help on the command-line options and usage. -V Print the version number and copyright info for h5fromh4. -v Verbose output. -a If the HDF5 output file already exists, append the data as a new dataset rather than overwriting the file (the default behavior). An existing dataset of the same name within the file is overwritten, however. -o file Send HDF5 output to file rather than to the input filename with .hdf replaced with .h5 (the default). If multiple input files were specified, this causes all input datasets to be stored in file (rather than in separate files), with the input filenames (minus the .hdf suffix) as the dataset names. -d name Write to dataset name in the output; otherwise, the output dataset is called "data" by default. Alternatively, use the syntax HDF5FILE:DATASET with the -o option. BUGS
