Yorick HDF5 plugin for Debian
-----------------------------

This is the `hdf5' plugin by François Rigaut for the Yorick interpreted
language, prepackaged for Debian GNU/Linux.

A sample/test file is provided in /usr/share/doc/yorick-hdf5/examples/. You
can run it with "yorick -batch check.i" after decompressing the file
somewhere.

Pre-0.6.2 versions of this plug-in had a bug which would reverse the
ordering of array dimensions. A tool is provided to convert such buggy
files to work as axpected with the newer versions of the plug-in:
  /usr/lib/yorick/bin/h5convert
documented in
  man /usr/share/doc/yorick-hdf5/h5convert.1
