Hi Michael:

i dont see any unused dimensions in the test file, but see them in the other file, so i assume they didnt get added. when in doubt, use the c library ncdump utility

it might be a bug in my code, can you use the latest version of the library (2.2.10) and try again? If that fails, send me your code that creates the file.

FYI, we prefer ".nc" for binary netcdf files, "cdf" for a similar file format
