Description

It would be nice if icclim could guess which variable to use when given a list of files and the index expected variable is known. for example, fetch tasmax in files if computing SU.

@pagecp, I fogot about it but, it's already implemented. You can run icclim.cw(["pr.nc", "tas.nc"]) and it will work whatever is the order of the two files as long as a pr (or its aliases) and a tas (or its aliases) is found in the merged Dataset. I could not find this in the documentation though, I will keep this issue open to update the doc.
