NAME

       gopen_gks - opens the GKS package

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/gks.h>

       void gopen_gks(const char *err_file, size_t mem_unit);

DESCRIPTION

       err_file    (Input) - The place to which error messages are to be written.  Typically this
                   should be "stdout".

       mem_unit    (Input) - The dimension of an internal  buffer.   Currently  in  NCAR  GKS-0A,
                   mem_unit is ignored.

USAGE

       To  get  output to any workstation, gopen_gks, gopen_ws and gactivate_ws must be called in
       that order.  For jobs producing only CGM output, the three calls to  gopen_gks,  gopen_ws,
       and gactivate_ws can be replaced with a call to the SPPS function c_opngks().

ACCESS

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