[Users] Visit & CarpetHDF5 mismatch?

[Scott Hawley]

Is THAT where those are?   I didn't see any instructions about that.  I
even tried downloading the xmledit plugin for vim...
(http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=301)

This line should be changed:
"To install the package, simply execute the install script contained in
the 
CarpetHDF5 package."

to read

"To install the package, first set your path to include the Visin bin/
directory (e.g. /Applications/VisIt.app/Contents/Resources/bin/ or
/usr/local/visit/bin/ ).  Then run the install script contained in the
CarpetHDF5 package."




Also... the instruction say
"In the "Makefile"-tab modify the library and include path for the
HDF5-library
to match the installation on your system."

....there is no "Makefile" tab.
