There are still to much limitation in some parts of the code in larch for my 
data evaluation. I would need to quite some code into the project and I#m not a 
python programmer (yet).

we create 3 different files in one go:

- one spec like file 
- one simple text file with only a view columns 
- one hdf5 file (also all fluorescence data of all detector channels available)

we don't write multiple scans in one file, because in the beginning hdf5 file 
access was limited to one program, so we were not able to write multiple scans 
during in-situ experiments and make online data evaluation 

best regards

Stefan
