NAME
       PDL::IO::Storable - helper functions to make PDL usable with Storable

SYNOPSIS
	 use Storable;
	 use PDL::IO::Storable;
	 $hash = {
		   'foo' => 42,
		   'bar' => zeroes(23,45),
		 };
	 store $hash, 'perlhash.dat';

DESCRIPTION
       "Storable" implements object persistence for Perl data structures that
       can (in principle) contain arbitrary Perl objects. Complicated objects
       must supply their own methods to be serialized and thawed.  This module
       implements the relevant methods to be able to store and retrieve
       piddles via Storable.

FUNCTIONS
       store

       store a piddle using Storable

	 $a = random 12,10;
	 $a->store('myfile');

       freeze

       freeze a piddle using Storable

	 $a = random 12,10;
	 $frozen = $a->freeze;

BUGS
       The packed piddles are not stored in a network transparent way. As a
       result expect problems when moving "Storable" data containing piddles
       across computers.

       This could be fixed by amending the methods "pdlpack" and "pdlunpack"
       appropriately. If you want this functionality feel free to submit
       patches.

       If you want to move piddle data across platforms I recommend
       PDL::NetCDF as an excellent (and IMHO superior) workaround.
