[FLASH-USERS] Trouble in opening HDF files

[Ong Jian Fuh]

Hi,

You can open this file for quick inspection by using visIt. You can 
download it here: 
https://visit-dav.github.io/visit-website/releases-as-tables/#latest

The script extract_rays.py is to extract the laser ray only. You still 
need visit to find other output like density. You can also use python to 
extract the data. Other possibility is to use yt:
