@Dave-Allured This is my own personal experience, I do most of my netCDF work using the python xarray library, which is a wrapper around a few netCDF libraries, including the one from unidata. The `char` vs `string` in attributes is abstracted away such that I didn't even know that the netCDF "text" attributes weren't strings as they are cast/coerced into native python strings. This is different from how `string` vs `char` is handled in variable data in xarray. I very rarely use the python-netCDF4 library directly.
