[ncl-talk] HDF5 to NetCDF

[Solange.Fermepin at lmd.jussieu.fr]

Hi Dennis,

thank you so much for your answer and for the script.

I was trying to convert files using something known to me, as ncl. The
tools described in the HDF website are rather obscure to me. As you said,
HDF5 is quit complicated.

This worked perfectly.

Best regards!
