Tools for opening and manipulating NcML (NetCDF Markup Language) files with/for xarray.

These tools allow you to modify NcML by:

- Adding or removing global attributes
- Adding or removing variable attributes
- Removing variables and dimensions

and read NcML files into `xarray.Dataset` objects:

.. code-block:: python

   import xncml
   ds = xncml.open_ncml("large_ensemble.ncml")

See `doc`_ for more information.
