3    The {\tt rw/} package provides a very rudimentary binary I/O capability
4    for quickly writing {\bf single record} direct-access Fortran binary files.
5    It is primarily used for writing diagnostic output.
6    \subsection{Introduction}
7    Package {\tt rw/} is an interface to the more general {\tt mdsio/} package.
8    It can be used to write or read direct-access Fortran binary files for
9    two-dimensional XY and three-dimensional XYZ arrays. Each call to an {\tt rw/}
10    read or write routine will read (or write) to the first record of a file.
11    To write files with multiple records use the package {\tt mdsio/} or the
12    package {\tt mnc/ \ref{sec:pkg:mnc}} which produces netCDF \cite{rew:97}
13    based output.
