template option for netcdf file

[Arindam Chakraborty]

hi Li,
        it may not be possible to open those files with template
option with the existing filename convention. However, you can easily
open those if you rename the files deleting the last part of those
dates. For example, rename 1900-01_1909-12.nc as 1900-01.nc. After
that, the template simply becomes %y4-01.nc.
