You're right, Seref! That's why I wrote a small little script which supports saving the script which generates the H5 file to the H5 file itself, in a file_node. That way, if you have the data file, you can always see what you did to create it :) You can find the script here: https://github.com/andreas-h/pyrepsci It's not cleaned up, but does the job. Currently, it works only via pandas, but when I find the time I'll make it more general. Maybe you find this useful. -- Andreas. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How ServiceNow helps IT people transform IT departments: 1.
