[NeXus-tech] simple view of NXDL fields and group structure

[Pete Jemian]

Responding to one of Mark's comments, I've created a simplified view for 
the field and group structure of the NXDL files.

Update your SVN working directory for the definitions and then browse to 
either trunk/base_classes, trunk/applications/, or 
trunk/contributed_definitions/.  Double-click on any of the .nxdl.xml 
files and (if you have associated .xml files with a WWW browser such as 
Firefox or Internet Explorer) a simple view should appear.  (It seems 
you can only do this with a directory on a local file system.)

I should print the link suggestions, as well.

I will add this view to the NXDL Chapter in Volume II of the manual.


Below are examples for
    trunk/base_classes/NXarchive.nxdl.xml
