No. I mispoke. Only attributes can do this. I should finish my coffee
before answering mail.

HDF5 Folk:
Is there an example somewhere about using bitfields in HDF5?
Or can you just tell me what functions would be used to create a
bitfield?
Limits on number of bits?
How are these stored then? Any sort of padding or what?
Ed
