1%'nc2struct': transform a netcdf file in a corresponding matlab structure
2% it reads all the global attributes and all variables, or a selected list.
3% The corresponding dimensions and variable attributes are then extracted
4%%%%%% TODO: add the possibility to read only attributes, see  nc2struct_toolbox %%%

8% OUTPUT:
9%  Data: structure containing all the information of the netcdf file (or netcdf object)
10%           with fields:
11%    .ListGlobalAttribute: cell listing the names of the global attributes
12%        .Att_1,Att_2... : values of the global attributes
13%            .ListDimName: cell listing the names of the array dimensions
14%               .DimValue: array dimension values (Matlab vector with the same length as .ListDimName
15%            .ListVarName: cell listing the names of the variables
16%            .VarDimIndex: cell containing the set of dimension indices (in list .ListDimName) for each variable of .ListVarName
17%            .VarDimName: cell containing a cell of dimension names (in list .ListDimName) for each variable of .ListVarName
18%           .VarAttribute: cell of structures s containing names and values of variable attributes (s.name=value) for each variable of .ListVarName
19%        .Var1, .Var2....: variables (Matlab arrays) with names listed in .ListVarName
20%  var_detect: vector with same length as ListVarName, with 1 for each detected variable and 0 else.
21%  ichoice: = line
22%
23%INPUT:
24%     nc:      name of a netcdf file (char string) or netcdf object   
25% ListVarName: optional list of variable names to select (cell array of  char strings {'VarName1', 'VarName2',...} )
26%         if ListVarName=[] or {}, no variables is read (only global attributes and lists of dimensions, variables and attriburtes)
27%         if ListVarName is absent, or = '*', ALL the variables are read.
28%        if ListVarName is a cell array with n lines, the set of variables
29%                        will be sought by order of priority in the list, while output names will be set by the first line
