[yt-users] Question on loading multiple HDF5 files together in one step

If the data are in a format it already knows about (e.g. Gadget) then this
will work out of the box.

If this is a custom data format and you're loading the data via e.g.
load_uniform_grid, this will be more difficult.  That said, adding support
for loading data that isn't in a standard format but *is* in an easily
parseable format like hdf5 is on our radar and is something I want to
actively work on once I start my postdoc this fall at NCSA.

Hope that's helpful.  Please let us know if you have any further questions
or run into trouble.

Nathan
