NGSETC(3NCARG)

✨ NGSETC — the NCAR Graphics bestie that sets your character params 💅

okay so real talk, this is NGSETC from the NCAR Graphics crew (manual page NGSETC(3NCARG), if you're keeping receipts). She's got one job and she does it gorgeously: she sets the character value of an internal parameter. That's it. That's the whole vibe. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

NGSETC — used to set the character value of a specified internal parameter. no cap, that's literally her entire personality.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

CALL NGSETC (CNP, CVP)

💜 C-BINDING SYNOPSIS 💜

#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

void c_ngsetc (char *cnp, char *cvp)

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

• CNP — an input expression of type CHARACTER, and she is the name of an internal parameter of Ngmisc. 👑 Heads up bestie: only the first two characters will be examined. So don't come in here typing out your whole government name, she's only reading the first two letters. iykyk.
• CVP — an input expression of type CHARACTER, and she's the desired new value of the parameter specified by CNP. This value will be used until the next call resetting it. so basically it stays iconic until something else comes along and changes the plot. 💀

🌈 C-BINDING DESCRIPTION 🌈

The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions. same energy, different font. 💖

🔥 USAGE 🔥

This routine allows you to set the current value of Ngmisc parameters. simple. elegant. main character energy fr fr.

For a complete list of parameters available in this utility, see the ngmisc_params man page. go read her, she's got the whole menu. 📜✨

👑 ACCESS 👑

To use NGSETC or c_ngsetc, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably in that order. not me stressing the order — she said preferably in that order and I'm just relaying the message. load them in that order, okay? 🫶
