GCLSG(3NCARG)

πŸ’– GCLSG πŸ’– β€” bestie, we're closing a GKS segment

okay so real talk, this is the NCAR GRAPHICS girlies' guide to GCLSG, and she is so simple it's almost criminal. no cap. let's get into it.


✨ NAME ✨

GCLSG β€” closes a GKS segment. that's it. that's the whole vibe. πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

CALL GCLSG

literally one line. she ate and left no crumbs. πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ C-BINDING SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

for my C girlies (iykyk):

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void gclose_seg( void );

same energy, different font. periodt. ✨


πŸ‘‘ USAGE πŸ‘‘

so when you call GCLSG, it closes the segment that's currently open β€” which means graphics output primitives will no longer be stored in that segment. the storage era is over, bestie.

⚠️ important!! GCLSG can be called only if a segment is open. like, you can't close a door that was never opened, okay? that's just physics. or GKS. same thing. πŸ’€

πŸ”₯ ACCESS πŸ”₯

to use GKS routines, you gotta load the NCAR GKS-0A library ncarg_gks. no library, no graphics, no slay. that's the rule. 🫢

okay bestie, that's the whole page!! this was brought to you by the UNIX manual, March 1993 edition, filed under GCLSG(3NCARG) β€” and yes, the date is giving vintage, the info is giving timeless. mwah!! πŸ’‹πŸ¦‹βœ¨
