Hmmm, the size looks correct (Russ's is older because of the
time zone difference):

Frw-r--r--   1 chouck   wsstaff   127056 May 06 17:01 design.ps

I just printed directly from the outgoing directory and it came out
fine (I was also able to ftp it to myslef and that copy
printed OK too)....

Page 6 is a postscript picture, do you think that could be the 
problem somehow?  (The doc is supposed to be 9 pages).

Is everyone having this problem?

Question for the HDF Home Office:

In H5Sselect_elements, is this parameter zero based?

const hssize_t *coord[ ]
    A 2-dimensional array specifying the coordinates of the elements
    being selected. 

I presume, this being C, that the coord array contains 0-bases
references to the elements being selected. This seems to be the case
in the h5_select sample program too.

Thanks,

Ed

Howdy Quincey!

Do me a favor, compile and run this program.

When I chage this program to use a contiguous dataset, and take out
the H5Dextend call, everything works. But using an extendable dataset,
it give me a seg fault.

Obviously I'm doing something wrong with respect to my setting up or
using the chunked dataset. I'm going to reread the docs and see what
they say again...
