h5utils 1.12.1 (6/24/09)
* Use octave-config, if available, to detect octave-plugin installation
path (thanks to Debian bug report #516453 for suggestion).
h5utils 1.12 (6/12/09)
* The vertical axis in h5topng is now reversed to correspond to
what most people seem to expect: increasing coordinates correspond
to "up" and "right" in the image, rather than "down" and "right"
in the image as in previous versions.
* Fixed failure in h5tovtk -2; thanks to Karen Lee for the bug report.
* Fixed installation of h5read.oct for Octave 3.x.
h5utils 1.11.1 (4/28/08)
* Fixed failure to find colormap files in h5topng 1.11 (due
to changes in autoconf 2.60); thanks to bug report from Jiangjun Zheng.
h5utils 1.11 (4/24/08)
* h5tovtk no longer reverses the dimensions; thanks to Andreas Wilde
for the suggestion.
* Fix compilation failure with HDF5 1.8.
h5utils 1.10.1 (9/20/06)
* Fixed build problem on Cygwin due to missing ".exe" extension.
Thanks to Ken Hill for the bug report.
h5utils 1.10 (9/2/05)
* Added h4fromh5 utility. (NCSA seems to be no longer shipping
the HDF5/HDF4 conversion tools with the latest HDF5 release.)
* Added dkbluered color map, which is similar to bluered but
uses a somewhat wider range of colors.
h5utils 1.9.1 (8/5/04)
* Fix h5topng compilation failure with some non-C99 compilers;
thanks to Maarten van Reeuwijk for the bug report.
h5utils 1.9 (7/12/04)
* Added new h5math utility, which creates and combines HDF5 datasets
using a user-specified mathematical expression. (Requires GNU
libmatheval to be installed.)
* h5topng: Matlab-like start:end or start:step:end notation for
slice indices, to allow a whole sequence of slices to be output as
a sequence of PNG images.
* h5topng: if contour/overlay dataset does not have same dimensions
as output data, it is periodically "tiled" over the output.
h5utils 1.8 (5/22/04)
* New -A and -a options for h5topng to allow translucent overlays
from one file onto another (an alternative or complement to the
-C contour-overlay option).
* h5topng uses 24-bit direct color by default (use -8 option for
old 8-bit behavior).
* h5topng uses columns/rows for x/y by default (use -T to swap),
the opposite of the old behavior.
* There is no default -z 0 slice dimension in h5topng/h5totxt any more.
You must specify a slice for 3+ dimensional data in h5topng.
h5totxt dumps the whole data file by default unless one or more
slices are specified.
* Support specifying multiple slice dimensions for 4+ dimensional
datasets, with new "-t" option to indicate final dimension.
* Slices are also supported now in h5tovtk and h5tov5d.
* New -. option in h5totxt to specify number of significant digits;
output 16 digits by default instead of 6, previously.
h5utils 1.7.1 (3/16/02)
* Fixed array overrun in h5topng that caused a floating-point exception
on Alphas; thanks to Marin Soljacic for the bug report.
h5utils 1.7 (3/9/02)
* h5topng now supports multiple, user-definable color tables, a number
of which are provided. INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the -c option now has
the syntax: -c <colortable>. The old behavior corresponds to the
included "bluered" colortable, invoked via: -c bluered.
* New -R option for h5topng to use a consistent color scale for
all specified files.
* New -0 option for h5topng and h5totxt that shifts the origin of the
slice coordinates to the dataset center.
* Added h5tovtk program to output VTK (Visualization ToolKit) data files.
* Support -T (transpose dimensions) option in h5tov5d.
* Fixed bug in h5topng that caused extra rows/columns of garbage pixels
to be written at the edges of images when scaling was used.
* When compiling the h5read Octave plugin, respect the CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS
environment variables. Thanks to Max Colice for the bug report.
* Fixed problem when --without-h5tov5d and --without-h5fromh4 are used.
Thanks to Nikola Ivanov Nikolov for the fix.
h5utils 1.6 (1/17/01)
* Don't build h5fromh4 if the superior h4toh5 tool (from HDF5 1.4)
is present. Also added --{with,without}-h5fromh4 option to
configure to force whether h5fromh4 is built.
h5utils 1.5.1 (12/9/00)
* Support manually disabling Octave plugin support
(configure --without-octave) in case of C++ problems.
* Support Vis5d+ and Debian HDF header file locations.
h5utils 1.5 (7/9/00)
* Added h5fromh4 program to convert HDF4 datasets to HDF5 format.
* Added -S <s> option to h5topng as a shortcut for -X <s> -Y <s>.
h5utils 1.4 (5/28/00)
* Added h5fromtxt program to convert text input to an HDF5 dataset.
h5utils 1.3.4 (1/31/00)
* Improved -C contour plotting in h5topng.
* Fix in h5topng man page (thanks to Christoph Becher).
h5utils 1.3.3 (1/30/00)
* Bug fix in h5topng (would sometimes output solid black images).
Thanks to Karl Koch for the bug report.
h5utils 1.3.2 (1/28/00)
* Added h5topng -Z option to center color scale on zero.
* Now support h5topng -C filename:dataset.
h5utils 1.3.1 (1/27/00)
* Bug fixes in dataset name-handling, especially when using h5tov5d to
join multiple datasets into one output file.
h5utils 1.3 (1/21/00)
* You can now specify individual datasets within a file by using
<filename>:<dataset> instead of just <filename> with h5topng,
h5totxt, and h5tov5d.
h5utils 1.2.3: (1/20/00)
* Fixed minor bug in 'h5totxt -h'.
h5utils 1.2.2: (1/12/00)
* Makefile now includes CPPFLAGS in the compiler flags, making it
easier to use header files in non-standard locations. (CPPFLAGS
is the proper place to put -I flags for the configure script.)
h5utils 1.2.1: (1/1/00)
* Modified -o option of h5tov5d to join datasets into a single Vis5d file.
h5utils 1.2: (12/31/99)
* Added h5tov5d program for converting to Vis5d format.
* Improved installation; h5read.oct now goes into the sitewide Octave
plugins directory, and things work correctly when only some of the
utilities are compiled.
h5utils 1.1: (12/6/99)
* Added h5totxt program for exporting 2d slices of HDF5 files to text
suitable for importing into a spreadsheet.
h5utils 1.0: (11/22/99)
* Initial release.
