Usage
-----

**Example - Load a DNS legacy .d_dat file:**

.. code-block:: python

   # data file.
   datafile = 'dn134011vana.d_dat'

   # Load dataset
   ws = LoadDNSLegacy(datafile, Polarisation='x')

   print "This workspace has", ws.getNumDims(), "dimensions and has", \
        ws.getNumberHistograms(), "histograms."

Output:

   This workspace has 2 dimensions and has 24 histograms.
