NAME

       ginq_char_expan - Inquire Character expansion factor

DESCRIPTION

       ginq_char_expan  (Inquire character expansion factor) - retrieves the current value of the
       character expansion factor.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/gks.h>

       void ginq_char_expan(Gint *err_ind, Gdouble *char_expan);

DESCRIPTION

       err_ind     (Output) - If the inquired value cannot  be  returned  correctly,  a  non-zero
                   error indicator is returned in err_ind, otherwise a zero is returned.  Consult
                   "User's Guide for NCAR GKS-0A Graphics" for a description of  the  meaning  of
                   the error indicators.

       char_expan  (Output) - Contains the current value of the character expansion factor as set
                   by default or by a call to gset_char_expan.

ACCESS

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