GCSGWK(3NCARG)

✨ NAME ✨

GCSGWK — bestie, it copies a GKS segment to a GKS workstation 🦋

Like, that's it. That's the whole job. And it ate. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

CALL GCSGWK(WKID,SGNA)

🌈 C-BINDING SYNOPSIS 🌈

okay so if you're doing the C thing instead of the Fortran thing, you gotta pull in the header first, no cap:

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void gcopy_seg_ws(Gint ws_id, Gint seg_name);

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So there's two arguments and you literally cannot skip either of them, they're both required:

• WKID (Integer, Input) — the workstation identifier, aka the one you already set up in a GOPWK call. This is the workstation that's receiving the segment copy. She's the destination, the main character of the receiving end. 📬
• SGNA (Integer, Input) — the segment that's getting copied over to that workstation. 🎀

🚨 WAIT. Important, bestie: SGNA must have been used in a previous call to GCRSG. Like, that segment has to already exist. You can't copy a segment that was never created — that's not a vibe, that's an error. Create first, then copy. Periodt. 💀

🔑 ACCESS 🔑

Wanna actually use the GKS routines? Load up the NCAR GKS-0A library ncarg_gks and you're good to go. That's the whole access requirement, slay. ✨
