prints a quick overview of the contents of PyTables HDF5 files.
SYNOPSIS
pttree
[ OPTIONS ]
filename[:nodepath]
DESCRIPTION
pttree
is designed to give a quick overview of the contents of a PyTables
HDF5 file by printing a depth-indented list of nodes, similar to the output of
the Unix `tree` function. It can also display the size, shape and compression
states of individual nodes, as well as summary information for the whole file.
For a more verbose output (including metadata), see `ptdump`.
