GUPD_WS(3NCARG)

✨ GUPD_WS 💖 (that's gupd_ws, from NCAR Graphics, bestie)

okay so real talk, this is a page out of the NCAR Graphics manual, section 3NCARG — and it's literally the "hey bestie, catch up" function for your workstation 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

gupd_ws (Update workstation) — it makes sure your workstation is current and that it reflects all the requests that have been made. no stragglers, no forgotten vibes, everything caught up. periodt ✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void gupd_ws(Gint ws_id, Gupd_regen_flag upd_regen_flag);

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so there's two things you gotta hand over, and here's the tea on each 👇

• ws_id — (Input) a number that IDs the workstation you wanna update. and like, it must be the same ws_id you already used in some previous gopen_ws call, okay?? don't be out here making up numbers, it's giving chaos 😭
• upd_regen_flag — (Input) a flag saying whether the current picture should be regenerated. the possible values are:
  • GUPD_NOT_PEND — Postpone
  • GUPD_PEND — Perform

🫶 heads up: for the workstation types supported in NCAR GKS, this flag should always be set to GUPD_PEND. like, always always. no cap.

---

🌈 USAGE 🌈

a call to gupd_ws flushes all the buffers to bring the workstation up to date. that's it, that's the whole move. main character energy fr fr 💫

---

🦋 ACCESS 🦋

to use the GKS C-binding routines, you load the ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c libraries. load them. both. don't skip leg day 🧚
