It depends on what you want.  If you are looking to a quick way to
manipulate NetCDF files of your own, you can easily program in C++, like in
the file attached below.  If you are looking for a general NetCDF toolbox
for Octave, tell me if you find any, as I am also looking for that.

In my Debian GNU/Linux box, I use the attached file as follows:


$ mkoctfile ncsave.cc -lnetcdf -lnetcdf_c++
$ octave
