[Branimir Sesar]

Hi all,

Does anyone have an example how to do the above?

Cheers,

Brani

Hi Brani,
There's nothing "out of the box" that will do this for you. But you
could output a FITS file, and convert it to HDF5 using pytables.

PS: The place to add something like this would be in:

https://github.com/mjuric/lsd/blob/master/src/lsd-query#L93

, it should be relatively straightforward (see how it's been done for
'text' and 'fits' output types). If you do it and send me a pull
request, I'll merge it into master.

Hope this helps,

Hi Mario,

Thanks for the tip :) However, I already figured out how to use pytables
and solved that problem.
