NAME

       GAGETC - Retrieves the value of a specified internal parameter of type CHARACTER.

SYNOPSIS

       CALL GAGETC (PNAM,CVAL)

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

       void c_gagetc (char *pnam, char *cval, int len)

DESCRIPTION

       PNAM        (an  input  constant  or  variable of type CHARACTER) is a string three or more characters in
                   length, the first three characters of which constitute the name  of  the  internal  parameter
                   whose value is to be retrieved.

       CVAL        (an  output variable of type CHARACTER) is the name of a variable into which the value of the
                   internal parameter specified by PNAM is to be retrieved.

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

       The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions with the  following
       exception:

       len         The size of cval as dimensioned in the calling program.

USAGE

       This  routine  allows  you  to  retrieve the current value of Gridall parameters.  For a complete list of
       parameters available in this utility, see the gridall_params man page.

ACCESS

       To use GAGETC or c_gagetc, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably  in
       that order.

MESSAGES

       See the gridall man page for a description of all Gridall error messages and/or informational messages.
