; Initfile for Netcdf file. define all the grid parameters through
; an appropriate call to computegid
;
; @categories
; Grid
;
; @param ncfilein {in}{required}{type=scalar string}
; A string giving the name of the NetCdf file
;
; @keyword START1 {default=0}{type=scalar: 0 or 1}
; Index the axis from 1 instead of 0 when using
; /xyindex and/or /zindex
;
; @keyword ZAXISNAME {default='z', 'level', 'lev', 'depth...'}{type=scalar string}
; A string giving the name of the variable in the file
; that contains the [xyz]axis.
;
; @keyword XYINDEX {default=0}{type=scalar: 0 or 1}
; To define the x/y axis with index instead of using
; the values contained in X/YAXISNAME.
; x/yaxis = keyword_set(start1) + findgen(jpi/jpj)
; this forces key_onearth = 0
;
; @keyword ZINDEX {default=0}{type=scalar: 0 or 1}
; To define the z axis with index instead of using
; the values contained in ZAXISNAME.
; zaxis = keyword_set(start1) + findgen(jpk)
;
; @keyword _EXTRA
; Used to pass keywords to <pro>computegrid</pro>, 
; <pro>ncdf_getaxis</pro>, <pro>ncdf_getmask</pro> and <pro>isafile</pro>
;
; @uses

; @restrictions
; Change the grid parameters (see <pro>computegrid</pro>)

; @restrictions
; the file must contain an x and an y axis. (1 ou 2 dimensional array)
