<h2>HDF5 Tool Interfaces</h2>
<p>
HDF5-related tools are available to assist the user in a variety of
activities, including
examining or managing HDF5 files,
converting raw data between HDF5 and other special-purpose formats,
moving data and files between the HDF4 and HDF5 formats,
measuring HDF5 library performance, and
managing HDF5 library and application compilation,
installation and configuration.
Unless otherwise specified below, these tools are distributed and
installed with HDF5.
