GQCHSP(3NCARG)

✨ GQCHSP 💖 (aka the Inquire Character Spacing era)

okay so bestie, welcome to GQCHSP from the NCAR GRAPHICS manual (that's the 3NCARG girlies, iykyk). This little function is literally just the vibe check for your character spacing — it goes and retrieves the current value for character spacing. That's it. That's the whole job. Queen behavior honestly. 👑

✨ NAME ✨

GQCHSP (Inquire character spacing) — retrieves the current value for character spacing. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

CALL GQCHSP (ERRIND, CHSP)

🦋 C-BINDING SYNOPSIS 🦋

for my C girlies, here's the glow-up version:

#include <ncarg/gks.h>

void ginq_char_space(Gint *err_ind, Gdouble *char_space);

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the tea on the arguments, no cap:

• ERRIND — (Integer, Output). If the inquired value cannot be returned correctly, a non-zero error indicator is returned in ERRIND — otherwise you get a zero. 🫶 For the lore on what the error indicators actually mean, go consult the "User's Guide for NCAR GKS-0A Graphics". Not me making you read the docs, but like. Do it.
• CHSP — (Real, Output). This one holds the current value for character spacing, whether that came from the default or from a call to GSCHSP. Either way she's showing up with receipts. ✨

🎀 ACCESS 🎀

to use GKS routines, load the NCAR GKS-0A library ncarg_gks. load her up and she's ready. 🔥
