[MITgcm-support] sample mnc output request

Hello Jeff,

The rdmnc.m function that was checked was a bit old.  I check in an 
updated version that I have been using for some time now which has 
improvements such as not being able to read iterations spanning 
multiple files in the 'T' (time) dimension.  To use rdmnc.m, first 
get some mnc files, such as those Ed pointed to:

http://mitgcm.org/eh3/MNC/mnc_test_20050921_0001/grid.*

Then simply use the command (with the grid.* files in the working directory) :

>>  data = rdmnc('grid.*')

data =

   attributes: [1x1 struct]
   Z: [5x1 double]
   RC: [5x1 double]
   (Continued)

Hope that is useful.

Daniel
