The nxsummary utility prints summary information about NeXus files. This program relies heavily on the configuration file that is located in  "${HOME}/.nxsummary.conf" or "/etc/nxsummary.conf". A sample configuration file can be obtained using the "--writeconfig" flag. Each item tag in  the file describes a node to print from the NeXus file. The path attribute describes where in the NeXus file to get information from. The  label attributes is what will be printed when showing the value of  the specified field. The optional operation attribute provides for  certain operations to be performed on the data before printing out the  result. Valid operations are:

  COUNT - The number of elements in the requested field.

  DIMS - The dimensions of the requested field.

  SUM - Add together all of the array elements and print the
  result.

  UNITS:newunits - Specify the units to print the result in.
