+opens an external browser window displaying the FORTRAN90-specific

+<dt><strong>Description:</strong>
+    <dd><code>H5Sget_select_bounds</code> retrieves the coordinates of

+        <p>
+        The <code>start</code> and <code>end</code> buffers must be large
+        enough to hold the dataspace rank number of coordinates.  
+        <p>
+        The bounding box exactly contains the selection.  
+        I.e., if a 2-dimensional element selection is currently
+        defined as containing the points (4,5), (6,8), and (10,7), 
+        then the bounding box will be (4, 5), (10, 8).  
+        <p>
+        The bounding box calculation includes the current offset of the
+        selection within the dataspace extent.
+        <p>
+        Calling this function on a <code>none</code> selection will 
+        return <code>FAIL</code>.
