[MITgcm-devel] mnc warning messages

[mlosch at awi-bremerhaven.de]

Hello,

I have to admit that these warning messages of the type:
"MNC_CW_ADD_VATTR_ANY WARNING: attribute value 'Merid. Planetary Coriolis Acceleration (f x U)' has more than     
40 characters and has been truncated to fit"
are a little annoying as the appear with every single run, because even the long_name attributes of the grid.nc files are 
longer than 40 characters. I would suggest either increasing this limit, so that the name that "we" have created fit and the 
warning is only issued if someone introduces now variables names, or change the variable names of the standard 
variables (such as the grid parameters) so that they fit the 40 char limit.
