H5NX: HDF5 NeXus writer

NeXus is a common data format for neutron, x-ray, and muon science. It is being developed as an international standard by scientists and programmers representing major scientific facilities in Europe, Asia, Australia, and North America in order to facilitate greater cooperation in the analysis and visualization of neutron, x-ray, and muon data.

The HDF5 NeXus writer API is a set of functions that allows to write data in the NeXus data format, using only HDF5 function calls. HDF5 is a machine-independent data format and software library for representing scientific data.
