ucar.nc2.dataset.NetcdfDataset.main() now is a cover for FileWriter, but you
can also open NcML, OPeNDAP, and other datasets accessible with
NetcdfDataset.openFile().

> There was a change early in the 4.0 code that switched FileWriter from using
NetcdfDataset to NetcdfFile (I think to attempt to clean up our package
dependencies). Since, NcML handling is at the dataset not file level,
FileWriter lost its ability to handle NcML files.

that.
