HDF5 files visualization tools

HDF5 (Hierarchical Data Format 5) is a file format for storing scientific data. These tools allow converting other formats to HDF5 and to visualize HDF5 files. They include: - h5topng, which extracts a 2d slice of an HDF5 file and outputs a corresponding image in PNG format; - h5totxt, which extracts 2d slices and outputs comma-delimited text (suitable for import into a spreadsheet); - h5fromtxt, which converts simple text input into multi-dimensional numeric HDF5 datasets; - h5fromh4, which converts HDF4 data to HDF5; - h5tovtk, which converts HDF5 files to VTK files for visualization with VTK-aware programs;
