GCRSG(3NCARG)
π NAME π
GCRSG β bestie, it literally creates a GKS segment. that's the whole vibe. β¨
π SYNOPSIS π
CALL GCRSG(SGNA)
π¦ C-BINDING SYNOPSIS π¦
okay so if you're living that C life instead of Fortran, you pull in the header like this:
#include <ncarg/gks.h>
and then the function itself is giving:
void gcreate_seg(Gint seg_name);
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
SGNA(Integer, Input) β this is the segment identifier, and it's the name you'll be dropping in all the calls to the later segment functions that apply to this segment. like, this is the segment's whole identity, its main character moment. π
Heads up, bestie: there can be a maximum of 100 segments in a given job step. that's the limit, no cap. π«Ά
Legal values for SGNA are integers between 0 and 99 inclusive. so like... 0, 99, everything in between. do not go rogue outside that range. π
π₯ ACCESS π₯
to use GKS routines, load the NCAR GKS-0A library ncarg_gks. that's the one. that's the library. periodt. πΈ

okay bestie that's the whole page, you ate it up fr fr π this was the NCAR GRAPHICS manual page for GCRSG, and it was brought to you by the UNIX crowd back in March 1993 β yeah, it's vintage, it's lowkey a classic, we stan a legacy page πβ¨ bye!! π
