Hi again,
Liam has prompted me to take a look into netCDF, and I must say, it's
easier than I thought.
(So far) I just got one question: If I store a string attribute (e.g.
units), IDL's
NCDF_AttPut routine internally converts it to BYTE no mater whether I
set the /CHAR flag or not. In the example that they provide, they force
the output to be a string saying one would need to do this to convert
from BYTE. But does this mean that the CHAR type is not supported? Or am
I missing something here?
Thanks,
Martin.
