h5dump [OPTIONS] file
OPTIONS
-h, --help Print a usage message and exit
-B, --userblock Print the content of the user block
-H, --header Print the header only; no data is displayed
-i, --object-ids Print the object ids
-V, --version Print version number and exit
-a P, --attribute=P Print the specified attribute
-d P, --dataset=P Print the specified dataset
-g P, --group=P Print the specified group and all members
-l P, --soft-link=P Print the value(s) of the specified soft link
-o F, --output=F Output raw data into file F
-t P, --datatype=P Print the specified named data type
-w N, --width=N Set the number of columns of output
-x, --xml Output in XML
-D U, --xml-dtd=U Use the DTD at U
Subsetting is available by using the following options with a dataset
attribute. Subsetting is done by selecting a hyperslab from the data.
Thus, the options mirror those for performing a hyperslab selection.
The START and COUNT parameters are mandatory if you do subsetting.
The STRIDE and BLOCK parameters are optional and will default to 1 in
each dimension.
-s L, --start=L Offset of start of subsetting selection
-S L, --stride=L Hyperslab stride
-c L, --count=L Number of blocks to include in selection
-k L, --block=L Size of block in hyperslab
P - is the full path from the root group to the object.
F - is a filename.
N - is an integer greater than 1.
L - is a list of integers the number of which are equal to the
number of dimensions in the dataspace being queried
U - is a URI reference (as defined in [IETF RFC 2396],
updated by [IETF RFC 2732])
Examples:
1) Attribute foo of the group /bar_none in file quux.h5
h5dump -a /bar_none/foo quux.h5
2) Selecting a subset from dataset /foo in file quux.h5
h5dump -d /foo -s "0,1" -S "1,1" -c "2,3" -k "2,2" quux.h5
h5ls
h5ls [OPTIONS] [OBJECTS...]

-d, --data Print the values of datasets
-e, --errors Show all HDF5 error reporting
-f, --full Print full path names instead of base names
-g, --group Show information about a group, not its contents
-l, --label Label members of compound datasets
-r, --recursive List all groups recursively, avoiding cycles
-s, --string Print 1-byte integer datasets as ASCII
-S, --simple Use a machine-readable output format
-wN, --width=N Set the number of columns of output
-v, --verbose Generate more verbose output
-V, --version Print version number and exit
-x, --hexdump Show raw data in hexadecimal format
OBJECTS
Each object consists of an HDF5 file name optionally followed by a
slash and an object name within the file (if no object is specified
within the file then the contents of the root group are displayed).
The file name may include a printf(3C) integer format such as
"%05d" to open a file family.
The HDF Group
