EXAMPLES
A file called "aa.hdf" contains three items associated with a raster image; the image dimensions, a palette, and the raster image. To display information about the contents of this file, the following command is used. hdfls aa.hdf The following output is displayed:
aa.hdf:
Image Dimensions-8: (Raster-8): (tag 200)
Ref nos: 1
Image Palette-8: (Raster-8): (tag 201)
Ref nos: 3
Raster Image-8: (Raster-8): (tag 202)
Ref nos: 1
The following displays the same information with the length of each data element: hdfls -l aa.hdf This would result in the following information being displayed:
aa.hdf:
Image Dimensions-8: (Raster-8) : (tag 200)
Ref no 1 4 bytes
Image Palette-8: (Raster-8) : (tag 201)
Ref no 3 768 bytes
Raster Image-8: (Raster-8) : (tag 202)
Ref no 1 120000 bytes
