NAME¶
nxconvert - convert a NeXus file between different on disk file formats
SYNOPSIS¶
nxconvert [-x|-h4|-h5|-d|-o keepws|-o table] [
infile
[
outfile]]
DESCRIPTION¶
NeXus supports different file formats for physical storage on disk or other
media.
nxconvert allows the user to convert a file to a different
backend.
If no output file is supplied on the command line, the program asks for one
interactively. Same if the input file is not given.
OPTIONS¶
The following options are supported:
- -x
- make outfile XML
- -h4
- make outfile HDF4 (this is the default)
- -h5
- make outfile HDF5
- -d
- make a XML based definition file used for validating NeXus files (i.e.
remove the data).
- -o keepws
- the XML file created should preserve whitespace.
- -o table
- the XML file created should write the data in a table format where the
columns and rows are easily imported into spreadsheet programs.
