GINQ_MAX_NORM_TRAN_NUM(3NCARG)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is ginq_max_norm_tran_num — the manual page lives in section 3NCARG of the NCAR GRAPHICS docs, and the whole vibe is: it asks the system "hey girl, how many normalization transformations can you even handle?" 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

ginq_max_norm_tran_num retrieves the maximum number of supported normalization transformations. that's it, that's the whole job. it's a little inquiry function, a lil vibe check on your GKS setup, and it slays at exactly one thing 🫶

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void ginq_max_norm_tran_num(Gint *err_ind, Gint *max_norm_tran_num);

like, that's the whole signature. two pointers, zero drama. periodt ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION (yes, again, this one's the arguments) 💖

• err_ind — (Output) if the inquired value cannot be returned correctly, a non-zero error indicator is returned in err_ind, otherwise a zero is returned. consult "User's Guide for NCAR GKS-0A Graphics" for a description of the meaning of the error indicators. ngl bestie, when this comes back non-zero, that's your cue to go read the guide 😭
• max_norm_tran_num — (Output) gives the maximum number of normalization transformations available in the GKS package. in NCAR GKS-0A, max_norm_tran_num = 2. yes. two. that's the number. she's not big, she's just honest 💀

🌈 ACCESS 🌈

to use the GKS C-binding routines, load the ncarg_gks and ncarg_c libraries. no cap, you literally can't use these without them 🧚

and that's the whole page bestie!! 🌸✨ this one came straight outta the UNIX manual, dated March 1993, and it's filed under GINQ_MAX_NORM_TRAN_NUM(3NCARG) — iconic, timeless, still serving exactly two normalization transformations after all these years 💖🎀🦋
