been checked into "HDF5 Development" branch. General ======= Various "copy edit" types of repairs. Revisions to document cross-linking. Added structural links tying all docs together (banners at top and bottom of documents, similar to Reference Manual banners of the Beta release). Set background color to white in all documents. NCSAfooterlogo.gif hdf2.jpg New image files to make the documents more self-contained (i.e., to prevent loading images from NCSA and HDF home servers). index.html Redesigned to isolate links external to the installation in a single location. Intro to HDF5 ============= H5.intro.html Fixed banner linking Intro to other docs. Set all URLs to be relative within the distribution; nothing points back to the HDF server. Updates to "Limits of the Current Release" and "Changes in the Current Release." HDF5 User's Guide ================= Changed several User Guide section titles such that all sections that are primarily about a particular interface are now titled in the format "The xxxxx Interface (H5x)". H5.user.html Commented out links to developer docs since they are marked in MANIFEST as not being for distribution in the release. Removed 2nd and 3rd indices from page. Changed "freeform" lists of sections (TOCs) to aligned tables. Datatypes.html Removed the sentence "I'm deferring definition until later since they're probably not as important as the other data types." from Section 3.3, "Properties of Date and Time Atomic Types." Added info regarding 'char' versus 'string' datatypes. Added as Section 3.7, "Character and String Datatype Issues." References.html Commented out substantial material (at end of document) from References planning document that is not appropriate for the User Guide but that is worth keeping around. Groups.html Final edits from elimination of "current working group." HDF5 Reference Manual ===================== Removed "Draft" from the <title>__</title> lines. RM_H5Front.html Removed 2nd and 3rd indices from page. Changed "freeform" lists of sections (TOCs) to aligned tables. RM_H5F.html RM_H5P.html Add file mounting information.
