Initial version of the ncldDump application.

Mark,

Here's the initial version. You can read some details in the ReadMe.txt file.

Hi @JimBiardCics

an initial thought, while i go through the code in more detail

the name nclddump makes a bit wary

in netCDF world ncdump makes CDL, which is parseable via ncgen to make a file

So, do you think that the output from this tool will be parseable by ncgen?

If not, perhaps it is worth rethinking the name, to make it clear that this is not an ncgen parseable output

what do you think?

Mark,

I'm good either way. It is parseable with a couple of minor tweeks. I've
got some other things I want to do as well. What I posted is definitely
a rough first draft!

Grace and peace,

Jim

Mark,
The output can now be cut and pasted into a text editor and it produces valid CDL that will regenerate the structure of the original netCDF file when passed to ncgen.

Output 'ncdump' with links to web resources

I had some modifications from just before AGU that I hadn't commited.
