Purpose:
    Expand H5open/h5open_f and H5close/h5close_f descriptions
    to indicate that these two calls are mandatory in Fortran90
    applications (though optional in C).

Platforms tested:
    IE 5, Safari

<dd><code>H5close</code> flushes all data to disk,
closes all file identifiers, and cleans up all memory used by
the library. This function is generally called when the
application calls <code>exit</code>, but may be called earlier
application calls <code>exit()</code>, but may be called earlier
in event of an emergency shutdown or out of desire to free all
resources used by the HDF5 library.

<dd>Initializes the HDF5 library.
<dt><strong>Description:</strong>
<dd><code>H5open</code> initialize the library. This function is
normally called automatically, but if you find that an
HDF5 library function is failing inexplicably, try calling
this function first.
<dd><code>H5open</code> initialize the library.
<p>
When the HDF5 Library is employed in a C application,
this function is normally called automatically, but if you
find that an HDF5 library function is failing inexplicably,
try calling this function first.
If you wish to elimnate this possibility, it is safe to
routinely call <code>H5open</code> before an application
starts working with the library as there are no damaging
side-effects in calling it more than once.
<p>
When the HDF5 Library is employed in a Fortran90 application,
<code>h5open_f</code> initializes global variables
(e.g. predefined types) and performs other tasks required to
initialize the library.
<code>h5open_f</code> and <code>h5close_f</code> are therefore
required calls in Fortran90 applications.

<dt>None.
