NAME

       PCGETI - Retrieves the integral value of an internal parameter of type INTEGER or REAL.

SYNOPSIS

       CALL PCGETI (PNAM,IVAL)

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

       void c_pcgeti (char *pnam, int *ival)

DESCRIPTION

       PNAM        (an input constant or variable of type CHARACTER) specifies the name of the
                   parameter to get. 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´.

       IVAL        (an output variable of type INTEGER) is the name of the variable into which
                   the value of the internal parameter specified by PNAM is to be retrieved.  If
                   the internal parameter is a value "i" of type INTEGER, the value returned is
                   "i".  If the internal parameter is a value "r" of type REAL, the value
                   returned is "INT(r)".

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

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

USAGE

       This routine allows you to retrieve 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: cpexcc, vvexcc.

ACCESS

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