; NAME:
;   CMSVLIB
;
; AUTHOR:
;   Craig B. Markwardt, NASA/GSFC Code 662, Greenbelt, MD 20770
;   craigm@lheamail.gsfc.nasa.gov
;
; PURPOSE:
;   Initialize the CMSVLIB save library
;
; CALLING SEQUENCE:
;   VALUE = CMSVLIB(/QUERY, VERSION=version)
;   
; DESCRIPTION: 
;
;   This function initializes the CMSVLIB library to read, write and
;   interrogate IDL save files.  Use the QUERY keyword to determine
;   whether the full CMSVLIB library is present.
;
;   The VERSION keyword allows the user to query the version number of
;   the CMSVLIB library.  The library version number will be returned
;   as a string of the form "X.Y" where X is the major version number
;   and Y is the minor version number.  Callers can use this version
;   number to decide whether this particular version of the library is
;   compatible with their usage.
;
;
;   The procedures in the library are:
;
;    High-level
;      CMSAVE - save variables to a save file
;      CMRESTORE - restore variables from a save file
;      CMSAVEDIR - list contents of a save file 
;      CMSVLIB (function) - this file
;
;    Mid-level  
;      CMSV_OPEN - open a save file for reading or writing
;      CMSVREAD - read non-pointer data from file
;      CMSVWRITE - write non-pointer data to file
;
;    Low-level
;      CMSV_RREC - read record from save file
;      CMSV_RVTYPE - read variable type information from file
;      CMSV_RDATA - read variable data from file
;      CMSV_WREC - write record to save file
;      CMSV_WVTYPE - write variable type information to file
;      CMSV_WDATA - write variable data to file
;
;    Utility
;      CMSV_RRAW (function) - read raw integer or string data from file
;      CMSV_WRAW - write raw integer or string data to file
;      CMSV_PTRSUM - create a heap data inventory
;      CMSV_TEST - test the library
;      TAGSIZE (function) - determine the types of all tags in a structure
;      HELPFORM (function) - create HELP-like string describing a variable
;
;   This procedure is part of the CMSVLIB SAVE library for IDL by
;   Craig Markwardt.  You must have the full CMSVLIB core package
;   installed in order for this procedure to function properly.

;
; INPUTS:
;
;   None
;
; KEYWORDS:
;
;   QUERY - if set, determine whether the CMSVLIB library is
;           installed.  Function returns 1 upon success, 0 upon
;           failure.
;
;   VERSION - upon return, the VERSION keyword will be set to a string
;             describing the version number of the CMSVLIB library.
