Thanks, I knew I had seen something about it somewhere.
So I can go
fid = h5open("data.jld", "r")
names(fid)
I'm assuming there's currently no way to get names with @load as per above
so I only have to open the file once?
Would be great if @load could return something which allowed me to inspect
the variable names, even just an array of strings would be good.
Is that remotely possible? If so I can happily create an issue.
