Dear list, I'm writing this because i have developed a small python module that might be of interest to you the readers of this list:
http://code.google.com/p/pyhdf5io/
It basically implements load/save functions that mimic the behaviour of those found in Matlab, i.e. with them you can store your variables from within the interactive shell (IPython, python) or from within a function, and then load them back in again. One important difference is that the hdf5 format is used to store the variables, which comes with a a number of benefits: - a open standard file format which is supported by many applications. - completely portable file format across different platforms.

And now to the question:
I think that this module is to small to be developed and maintained on its on, I think It would be better if it could be part of some larger project. So where would pyhdf5io fit in? Any tips and ideas are highly appreciate
I'd expect to find it in http://h5py.alfven.org/ I think... -- Dag Sverre
