NetCDF utilities can handle Unicode names for

• Dimensions
• Variables
• Attributes
• Groups
• User-defined types
• Compound type members
• Enumeration symbols

Example ncdump output:

dimensions:
	pressure = 10 ;
	pressão = 10 ;
	ciśnienie = 10 ;
	налягане = 10 ;
	压力 = 10 ;
	πίεση = 10 ;
	давление = 10 ;
	압력 = 10 ;
variables:
	float πίεση(πίεση) ;
		πίεση:standard_name = "air_pressure" ;
