[yt-users] .yt file

[Michael Kuhlen]

Hi

I'm experimenting with a new user defined derived quantity, and
occasionally I've used a buggy version of this to create a projection
(say), which then got saved to the .yt file. After fixing the bug in the
definition of my derived quantity, I'd like to try out the new version,
but of course yt will read the old buggy version from the .yt file. I
could just delete the .yt file, but it's storing a lot of other correct
projections and I'd like to avoid re-running these.

Is there some keyword to force yt to skip reading from the .yt file?
And/or one to force it not to write to the .yt in the first place?

I see that the file is in HDF5 format. Would it be safe to just delete
the one offending dataset from it?

Mike
