That information is also in text files in the "notes" subdirectory in the IDL
distribution. I don't know what the story is with PV-wave.

You are correct that the basic docs (IDL Reference Guide and IDL User's
Guide) do not mention HDF. What you need is the separate booklet "IDL
Scientific Data Formats" which comes with IDL 3.1. It describes routines
for handling CDF, NetCDF, and HDF files.
