Save a list of arrays to a single file.

save_chunks(filename, chunks, group_name = "chunks")

Arguments

filename	The filename to open, save, and close.
chunks	A list, where each member is an array, and each array has dimnames where each dimension is named. Any attributes of those arrays will also be saved, if HDF5 will save them. I don't know the rules on what it will/won't save, but strings and arrays should be good.
group_name	The subdirectory in which to place chunks within the HDF5 file. This function is for saving arrays in HDF5. We need to save chunks of arrays, with lots of metadata, so HDF5 lets us do that and keep everything together, instead of trying to parse filenames to do it.
