# This script is used to compares two netcdf files when there are some more variables in one or 
# the other of the files. The script will:
# 1) Compare using ncdump the variables in both files and ask the user to remove if wanted. 
#    Temporary files are created with less variables.
# 2) use cdo diffv on the temporary files
