Thanks for your patches. Some questions:

> Change #1: An iterator that returns a table's data into a numarray

Interesting approach. By the way, why did you not considered making
use of Table.read() and providing different values of start and stop?
If for whatever reason, you need to use the same recarray buffer in
each iteration, maybe an optional buffer in read could be better. Do
you think that your approach has any advantage over this proposal?

> Change #2: Read the HDF chunksize parameter when opening a file

Nice thing. Will apply it.

> Change #3: Allow direct control over the HDF chunksize when creating a file

Also good idea for users that want a finer control of their
chunksizes. We will look into this and plan to offer control for it as
well.

Cheers!

Ps.- If you want to make the life of poor PyTables developers better,
please, provide "diff -urN" patches next time (sorry I've no idea of
how create these in Win. Anyone?).
