✨ GDSG ✨ — it's giving "bye bye segment" 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the NCAR GRAPHICS corner of the man pages, this one is GDSG from section 3NCARG and honestly? she's short, she's sweet, she does one thing and she does it flawlessly. no cap. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

GDSG — deletes a GKS segment. that's it. that's the whole vibe. she deletes. she leaves. she does not text back. 💀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

CALL GDSG(SGNA)

yes bestie, Fortran, capital letters, we love a classic. 🫶

💜 C-BINDING SYNOPSIS 💜

for my C girlies who want in on the action:

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void gdel_seg(Gint seg_name);

literally the same energy, different font. iconic. ✨

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

  • SGNA (Integer, Input) — this is the segment identifier, okay? you hand her the name of a segment and she deletes it. that's the whole job description. input only, she takes, she does not give back. 💅

🌈 USAGE 🌈

the segment name gets removed from the set of names of segments that are currently in use. so after this call, that name is out of the group chat. no longer on the list. she said "not on my roster" and meant it. periodt. 👑

⭐ ACCESS ⭐

want to actually use GKS routines? you gotta load the NCAR GKS-0A library, and the one you want is ncarg_gks. load it or you're just out here calling functions into the void, and the void is not answering. 😭

reminder for the real ones: GDSG only cares about SGNA, the segment identifier you're deleting. nothing more, nothing less. main character behavior fr fr. 🔥

and that's the whole page, my love — this one came from the UNIX manual, dated March 1993, and it's filed under GDSG(3NCARG). slay, go delete some segments responsibly. 💖✨🌸
