πŸ“¦ version 6.6.2, in epel 9, fedora 43, fedora 44

πŸ’Ύ AGRSTR πŸ’Ύ

okay bestie, this is AGRSTR from the NCAR GRAPHICS manual, section 3NCARG β€” yes it's giving vintage mainframe glamour and we're obsessed πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

AGRSTR β€” restores a saved state of Autograph. like an undo button but make it ✨archival✨ πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

CALL AGRSTR (IFNO)

πŸ¦‹ C-BINDING SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

void c_agrstr (int ifno)

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

  • IFNO β€” an input expression of type INTEGER, bestie. it's the number of a unit that a single unformatted record is gonna be read from πŸ“–βœ¨ and no, the routine will NOT hold your hand on this one: it is the user's responsibility to position this unit. and before you ask β€” AGRSTR does not rewind it. not before reading the record, not after reading the record. not ever. it simply does not have that energy 🚫βͺ

🧚 C-BINDING DESCRIPTION 🧚

the C-binding argument description is literally the same as the FORTRAN argument description. same vibes, different language, no notes πŸ’…


🌈 USAGE 🌈

this routine restores internal parameter values from a file β€” bringing your whole parameter situation back from the archives 🫢

for a complete list of parameters available in this utility, go read the autograph_params man page. that's where the full menu lives, iykyk πŸ“œ


πŸ‘‘ ACCESS πŸ‘‘

to use AGRSTR or c_agrstr, you load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c β€” preferably in that order, okurrr? don't be chaotic about the order πŸ™ˆ

and if you want smoother curves β€” the ones drawn using spline interpolation β€” you also load libdashsmth.o. that's the glow-up file ✨

OR, alternative route: use the ncargf77 command to compile your program and load all the libraries above, and then, for those smoother curves, use the -dashsmth option. two paths, same slay πŸ›£οΈπŸ’–


πŸ“¬ MESSAGES πŸ“¬

see the autograph man page for a description of all Autograph error messages and/or informational messages. every single one. go look πŸ‘€

heads up bestie β€” that IFNO unit positioning thing is on YOU. AGRSTR is not gonna rewind anything for you, not before, not after. fr fr, read the description again if you need to πŸ’€

and that's the whole page, gorgeous πŸ’œ this was AGRSTR(3NCARG), straight out of the UNIX manual, dated March 1993 β€” a true vintage icon, no cap πŸŽ€βœ¨πŸ¦‹
