Question, open compressed file

[milesgranger]

Hello, and thank you for creating this lib! 💯

As there is no documentation to refer to, I see that I can (and do) open a file using netcdf::open, but is there a way to open from a buffer / various compressed formats? Right now I would like to have the files saved in gzip format, but unsure how to load them directly into netcdf

I believe netcdf::open is the only option currently. @evomassiny do you agree?

Feel free to submit a PR if you have time to work on it!

[evomassiny]

yes netcdf::open is currently the only option :/
Maybe this could be done using this nc_open_mem() function (from the original C library).

I tried to make a PR out of this, but it was ignored, so closing this.

Reopening this since we are getting some momentum going again on #17
