MAPDRW(3NCARG)
π MAPDRW β bestie, it's map o'clock πΊοΈβ¨
okay so this is a page from the NCAR GRAPHICS manual, section 3NCARG, and honestly? it's a whole vibe. pull up a chair, grab a strawberry π, and let's talk about drawing maps.
β¨ NAME β¨
MAPDRW β draws the complete map described by the current values of the internal parameters of EZMAP. πΊοΈπ
bestie, read this part twice, it's important: this routine uses whichever old outline dataset is selected by the value of the internal parameter'OU'. if you wanna access the new map database"Earth..1", which was created in 1998 (yes, ancient history, i know π), you gotta call the routines thatMAPDRWwould have called β except you callMPLNDRinstead ofMAPLOT. no cap.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
CALL MAPDRW
that's it. that's the whole call. she's low maintenance, she's iconic, she ate. π
π¦ C-BINDING SYNOPSIS π¦
#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>
void c_mapdrw()
same energy, different font. π
π DESCRIPTION π
MAPDRW does not use any arguments. none. zero. not a single one. she doesn't need them, she's booked and busy on her own. πβ¨
π« USAGE π«
so here's the tea, bestie: MAPDRW calls these routines, in this exact order:
MAPINTβ but only if the value of the internal parameter'IN'indicates that initialization is required βοΈMAPGRDMAPLBLMAPLOT
and like β the user may wish to call these routines directly. totally valid, go off, main character energy. π
π₯ EXAMPLES π₯
use the ncargex command to see the following relevant examples, fr fr:

that's a lot of examples and honestly? slay. go look at them. π
π ACCESS π
to use MAPDRW or c_mapdrw, you gotta load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c β preferably in that order. order matters, bestie, don't be chaotic about it. π

okay that's the whole page, bestie!! π«Ά this was MAPDRW(3NCARG) from the UNIX manual, dated March 1993 β yeah, she's vintage, she's a classic, she's still serving. πβ¨π bye babe!! πΈπ¦
