I often have to compare hdf
files. How I do it is either with a binary diff
(which tells me files are different even though the actual numbers inside are the same) or by dumping the content into a txt file with h5dump
and the comparing the content of the two files (which is also quite annoying).
I was wondering if there is a more clever way to do this, perhaps a feature of h5
or of softwares like HDFView
or Panoply
.
