SHGETI(3NCARG)

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

💖 SHGETI 💖

okay bestie, so this one is from the NCAR GRAPHICS collection (the 3NCARG corner of the manual, iykyk) ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

SHGETI — it goes and fetches the value of an internal parameter that's of type INTEGER. that's it, that's the whole job. 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

CALL SHGETI (PNAM,IVAL)

literally two args, no drama, we love a low-maintenance icon 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

  • PNAM — a character string that tells it which parameter you wanna get. the name has to appear as the first three characters of the string. first three, bestie, not four, not two. the vibe check happens on characters 1–3. 💀
  • IVAL — an INTEGER variable, and this is the variable into which the value of the internal parameter named by PNAM gets retrieved. so it's the lil bucket that catches the number when it comes home 🪣💖

✨ USAGE ✨

this routine is your girl for retrieving the current value of Shgrid parameters. not the past value, not the future value — the current one. present tense only. 🌈

and if you want the complete list of parameters available in this utility? go read the shgrid_params man page. that's where the full menu lives, bestie. 🍓

🔥 ACCESS 🔥

to use SHGETI, you gotta load the NCAR Graphics library ngmath. no library, no SHGETI, no cap. 👑
