[Matplotlib-users] netcdf4-python usage, NetCDFFile

[John <was...@gm...>]

I've searched through the netcdf4-python trunk, but I find no
reference of NetCDFFile as in how the basemap or Scientific.IO.NetCDF
modules use it.

For compatibility with my old scripts, is it safe to simply:

from netCDF4 import Dataset as NetCDFFile

??

Thanks,
john
