NAME

       gclose_gks - closes the GKS package.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/gks.h>

       void gclose_gks( void );

USAGE

       A  call  to  gclose_gks  insures  that  the  graphics  package is properly terminated.  No graphics calls
       depending on GKS should be made during the time that GKS is closed.  If output to  a  CGM  has  been  the
       exclusive  requirement  of the graphics job, and the SPPS entry c_opngks has been used to open GKS and to
       open and activate a CGM workstation,  then  c_clsgks  can  be  used  to  deactivate  and  close  the  CGM
       workstation, and to close GKS, making a direct call to gclose_gks unnecessary in that case.

ACCESS

       To use the GKS C-binding routines, load the ncarg_gks and ncarg_c libraries.
