DSGETI(3NCARG)

📦 version 6.6.2, in epel 9, fedora 43, fedora 44

💖 DSGETI 💖 — from the NCAR Graphics manuals, section 3NCARG 🎀

okay bestie, so this one is DSGETI, and she is so niche and so useful. She lives in the NCAR Graphics world (you'll find her filed under 3NCARG) and her whole entire job is: reaching into Dsgrid's internal params and pulling out an INTEGER value. that's it. that's the gig. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

DSGETI — gets the value of an internal parameter of type INTEGER. periodt. 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

CALL DSGETI (PNAM, CVAL);

like, that's the whole call. two args. we love a low-effort icon. 😌

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

  • PNAM — a character string that names the parameter you wanna get. heads up: the name has to show up as the first three characters of the string. so it's giving "first three or nothing," fr fr. 🙈
  • CVAL — an INTEGER variable, and she's the destination. she's the variable that the value of the internal parameter named by PNAM gets retrieved into. so you pass her in, and she comes back holding the tea. ☕✨

💜 USAGE 💜

this function lets you get the current value of Dsgrid parameters. that's the vibe — you're peeking at what the params are set to right now, no cap. 👑

and if you want the complete list of parameters available in this utility, go look at the dsgrid_params man page. she has the whole menu. 🍓

🔥 ACCESS 🔥

to use DSGETI, you load the NCAR Graphics library ngmath. that's the plug. 🔌💖
