+ - h5import: Allow use of h5dump output as input files to h5import.
+ h5dump must include the "-p" option to print the properties,
+ configuration file is captured output of h5dump. The restrictions are
+ that only one dataset with a simple datatype (integer, floating-point,
+ or string) can be processed.
+ Integers and floating-point imports from h5dump must use the "binary"
+ option for the data file.
+ The string version uses the h5dump "-y --width=1" options to disable the
+ indexing printouts, print single columns and obviously NOT use the
+ "binary" option.
