NAME

       AGSETC - Allows a user program to (in effect) store a character string as the value of a
       specified single parameter.

SYNOPSIS

       CALL AGSETC (TPGN,CUSR)

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

       void c_agsetc (char *tpgn, char *cusr)

DESCRIPTION

       TPGN        (an input expression of type CHARACTER) is a parameter identifier, as
                   described for AGSETP, above. The specified parameter must be one of those
                   which intrinsically have values of type character: 'LINE/END.', 'LABEL/NAME.',
                   'LINE/ TEXT.', or 'DASH/PATTERN/n.'

       CUSR        (an input expression of type CHARACTER) is the desired character string.

                   •      If 'LINE/END.' is being set, only the first character of CUSR will be
                          used.

                   •      If 'LABEL/NAME.' is being set, the length of the string CUSR will be
                          taken to be "MAX(1,LEN(CUSR))".

                   •      If the text of a label is being set, CUSR must either be of the exact
                          length specified by 'LINE/MAXIMUM.' (40 characters, by default) or
                          shorter; if shorter, it must be terminated by the character defined by
                          'LINE/END.'  (default: a '$').

                   •      If a dash pattern is being set, the length of CUSR will be taken to be
                          the minimum of "LEN(CUSR)" and the value specified by 'DASH/LENGTH.'.

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

       The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions.

USAGE

       This routine allows you to set the current value of Autograph parameters.  For a complete
       list of parameters available in this utility, see the autograph_params man page.

EXAMPLES

       Use the ncargex command to see the following relevant examples: agex05, agex06, agex07,
       agex08, agex09, agex13, tagupw, tautog, fagaxlbl, fagovrvw.

ACCESS

       To use AGSETC or c_agsetc, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c,
       preferably in that order.  To get smoother curves, drawn using spline interpolation, also
       load libdashsmth.o.  Or, you can use the ncargf77 command to compile your program and load
       the above libraries, then, to get smoother curves, use the -dashsmth option.

MESSAGES

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