WMSETC(3NCARG)

πŸ’– WMSETC β€” it's giving "set a character parameter" ✨

ok so bestie, welcome to WMSETC from the NCAR GRAPHICS manual (section 3NCARG, iykyk). This is the little routine that sets the value of an internal parameter of type CHARACTER. That's the whole vibe. πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

CALL WMSETC (PNAM,CVAL)

✨ C-BINDING SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

void c_wmsetc (char *pnam, char *cval)

πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

  • PNAM β€” an input constant or variable of type CHARACTER, and it specifies the name of the parameter you wanna set. Important detail, bestie: the name has to appear as the first three characters of the string. Not the last three, not the middle three. The first three. 🫢
  • CVAL β€” an input expression of type CHARACTER, and it's the value that gets assigned to the internal parameter that PNAM pointed at. Like, that's the whole job. She's a giver. πŸ‘‘

πŸ’œ C-BINDING DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

The C-binding argument descriptions are literally the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions. Same energy, different syntax. No cap. 🌈


πŸ”₯ USAGE πŸ”₯

This routine lets you set the current value of Wmap parameters. And if you want the complete list of parameters available in this utility, go look at the wmap_params man page β€” that's where the whole menu lives. πŸ“œ


⭐ ACCESS ⭐

To use WMSETC or c_wmsetc, you load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c β€” and preferably in that order, okay? Order matters, trust. 🧚
