MAPIQ(3NCARG)

💖 MAPIQ — the lil' "ok we're DONE here" call 💖

NCAR GRAPHICS · manual section 3NCARG · bestie edition ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

MAPIQ — it terminates a string of calls to MAPIT. That's it, that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

CALL MAPIQ

no arguments, no drama, no notes 🎀

---

🦋 C-BINDING SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

void c_mapiq()

yep, the C girlies get their own version and she's just as valid 🫶

---

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

Okay so real talk: MAPIQ has no arguments. Zero. None. She doesn't need them, she doesn't want them. She simply is 🌈

---

💅 USAGE 💅

Here's the tea, and it's important tea: MAPIQ flushes MAPIT's buffers.

And bestie, listen — it is particularly important that this flushing happens:

• before a STOP 😭
• before a CALL FRAME 😭
• and before changing the color index, dash pattern, etc. 💀

Like, if you skip this step, your pretty little drawing might just... not show up. Not me forgetting to call MAPIQ and then staring at an empty frame for twenty minutes 🙈

For more info, go read the man page for MAPIT. She's the main character, MAPIQ is her iconic closing number ✨

🧚 ACCESS 🧚

To use MAPIQ or c_mapiq, you gotta load the NCAR Graphics libraries:

• ncarg
• ncarg_gks
• ncarg_c

...and yes, preferably in that order. Don't be chaotic about it 💜
