Thanks a lot for all your suggestions. I have downloaded the NumPy aware 
netcdf source and will look at that today.

Yes please, I guess that it will be simpler than netcdf and closer to what
I am trying to do at the moment. Could you please post it to the matrix-sig or
email me the source?

It would be nice to have a more generic solution though I am too new to
Python to know what would be required.
