GASETI(3NCARG)

πŸ’– GASETI πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the GASETI page from the NCAR Graphics manual (that's GASETI(3NCARG) if you're being formal, which like, we're not). this one's a lil function that hands an integer to one of Gridall's internal lil settings. slay. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

GASETI β€” gives an integer value to an internal parameter of Gridall. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it beautifully. πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

CALL GASETI (PNAM,IVAL)

✨ C-BINDING SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

void c_gaseti (char *pnam, int ival)

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

  • PNAM β€” an input constant or variable of type CHARACTER, and she's gotta be a string three or more characters long. the first three characters are the name of the internal parameter you're setting the value of. like, the first three are the whole identity, the rest is just vibes. πŸ¦‹
  • IVAL β€” an input expression of type INTEGER, and it's the new value for the internal parameter that PNAM pointed at. important tho: if that internal parameter happens to be of type REAL, then what actually gets given to it is REAL(IVAL). so she converts for you, no cap. πŸ”₯

✨ C-BINDING DESCRIPTION ✨

the C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions. literally identical. matching energy. 🫢


✨ USAGE ✨

this routine is your girl for setting the current value of Gridall parameters. and if you want the complete list of parameters available in this utility, go read the gridall_params man page. it's all in there, i promise. πŸ’–


✨ ACCESS ✨

to use GASETI or c_gaseti, you gotta load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c β€” and preferably in that order. don't be chaotic about it. 🌸


✨ MESSAGES ✨

for a description of all the Gridall error messages and/or informational messages, see the gridall man page. she'll tell you what went wrong. 😭
