How to change the an HDF5 table title (created using pytables)

Question

I was wondering if there was a way to change the title of an HDF5 table, that I created in my python code, using pyTables. I gave the wrong title string, and I need too change it now, so when I open it again in python, I can distinguish it from other tables that I load, according to its title.

How about you change the _v_title attribute on the Node and then save the hdf5 file again?

table._v_title = 'new title'

`table.title = 'new title'` is sufficient. – Noob Saibot Jun 16 '13 at 19:06
