[Yt-dev] HaloProfiler vs. enzo_anyl

[Cameron Hummels]

Rick,

I don't think he's suggesting we change enzo.  I think he simply wants
to know what functionality is lacking from yt's haloprofiler that
enzoanyl currently has.  That said, I think when we get haloprofiler
working up to spec with enzoanyl's capabilities, we should announce it
to the enzo list, so people who use enzoanyl (there aren't many of us)
will know that there is a better supported alternative in yt.

I would definitely like to see this become official, since it seems to be keeping a number of people from making the switch to YT.  Can somebody outline the things that enzo_anyl does that the HaloProfiler cannot?  I have been under the impression that there wasn't anything, but I haven't used enzo_anyl in quite a while.
