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.
