NAME

       PCSETC - Gives a new character value to a specified internal parameter.

SYNOPSIS

       CALL PCSETC (PNAM,CVAL)

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

       void c_pcsetc (char *pnam, char *cval)

DESCRIPTION

       PNAM        (an input constant or variable of type CHARACTER) specifies the name of the
                   parameter to be set. The name must appear as the first two characters of the
                   string. If the internal parameter is one of the two (´BC´ and ´CC´) that are
                   arrays, the index of the desired array element may appear, enclosed in
                   parentheses, in columns 3 and following. Other characters may be used to
                   document the use of the parameter being retrieved; for example, instead of
                   just ´MA´, one can use ´MA - MAPPING FLAG´ and, instead of ´CC(10)´, one can
                   use ´CC(10) - SPECIAL COLOR 10´.

       CVAL        (an input constant or variable of type CHARACTER) is the value to be assigned
                   to the internal parameter specified by PNAM.

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 Plotchar parameters.  For a complete
       list of parameters available in this utility, see the plotchar_params man page.

EXAMPLES

       Use the ncargex command to see the following relevant examples: coex02, coex03, epltch,
       fcoord1, fcoord2, fpcfonts, fpchiqu, fslfont.

ACCESS

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

MESSAGES

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